2-Parter:
So, would you agree that God the Holy Spirit doesn’t need our personal individual help in converting the unbeliever?

And that it is the “work” of the Holy Spirit alone, operating through the church on Earth, that converts unbelievers?

Yes I believe that God does the work of salvation alone, so no man can take glory for it. 

For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal?

Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?

I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.

So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase. 1 Corinthians 3:5-7

No man can come to me, except the Father that sent me draws him: and I will raise him up in the last day. It is written in the prophets, “And they shall all be taught of God. Every one that has heard from the Father, and has learned, comes unto me” John 6:44
