No other. The point is that because of historical or other circumstances beyond an individual's culpability, an individual may be "saved" and live a life completely in the Spirit of God without the intellectual knowledge of the name "Jesus."

Wow. So there is more than one path. The roman catholic church teaches that?

how do you get that from what I said? There is one Way, one Path. My question, which maybe you'll answer, is is it possible that God could save someone, elect him, fill him with His Spirit and lead him in a Spirit-filled life even if the person has never heard the name "Jesus"?

I'm not saying it happens all the time, on the contrary. But is it possible God could do this?

Or, as I re-worded it, is salvation acheived because God chose us, or because we know His Name?
