What good does hearing the Gospel do to the unregenerate?
I makes the Gospel available to be understood by the unregenerate, setting up conditions for the call by the Father. If the unregenerate display faith in Him, then that faith is the beginning point for the unregenerate to return to God because the penalty of sin has already been paid, but out current state is still unregenerate.
Besides we still are to follow the Great Commission.

Why would an unregenerate person ask Jesus to come into his heart and make a new creature in him?

The unregenerate do not believe they are sinners . They do not "sin " they make "mistakes" and that does not matter because they are better than their neighbor , and they are just "good enough" to go to heaven ..or they laugh and say they want to be in hell with their friends ..laughing themselves to the flames by their disbelief of the power or-of God or His wrath at the sin of men

Indeed faith to salvation is a gift of God..But it not "simply" because not all men have saving faith given to them by God. How do we know that ? Look around you. To exercise that faith the man would have to seek God and desire the gift..and as you see and the bible tells us that NONE seeketh after God
