I suggest that no one can love unconditionally unless GOD has given him grace to do so. And whatever the profession of the person to whom such a gift might be given, the gift comes from the Father through Jesus in the Spirit.So there is no talk about someone coming to God through some way other than Jesus. It is always IHS who saves; there is no other savior. Thanks ,Dear Brother. That is the point I was trying to make that you explained very well.
God sends His Spirit to anyone He desires,not who WE think does not deserve the Holy Spirit. All TRUE love is from God.Period!

I don't believe you'll find too many examples in the NT where people received the Holy Spirit willy nilly...
YOu are making quite a leap in thinking you will find a muzlim girl who loves everyone and everything unconditionally...If she did I can't see how she would be a muzlim...
