Because if you have the Holy Spirit inside you, you will try to love God and obey his commandments.

Circular argument. Anyway, it doesn't matter. No matter what I do, it is because God has predestined that my actions should take a certain course. If we follow your arguments to their logical conclusion, there is no moral basis for us to punish people for murder or any other crime. Heck, the ten commandments are irrelevant since no one chooses to follow or violate them. How could they be if God is the cause of their murdering?
