The best change of all is when someone repents, changes their mind about sin and desires for Christ to change them into a new creation.
A person can change the way they act on the outside to fit with their desired culture, but if Christ is not the one Who changed their heart then they will still end up in hell.
It is the heart God wants to change, not just the behavior. If the heart is right the behavior will change without effort. We merely do what we want to do, when the heart has been changed by Christ our way of thinking is completely opposite of what it was before Christ did that work in our hearts.
Ezekiel 11:19
"And I will give them one heart, and a new spirit I will put within them. I will remove the heart of stone from their flesh and give them a heart of flesh,"
2 Corinthians 5:17
"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come."
