Can't the Holy Spirit work on the outside of a person before they are saved? He did with me.

Mizpeh.....
I'm not sure that God can work on us in
any manner that doesn't affect us inwardly and result in change if we allow Him to have His way.
That's the short answer. I typed out a longer one but I'll let this suffice for now.
Except to say .....
..... that it's very important to remember that there are many different works/operations of the Spirit of God! They don't all happen at one and the same time.
And to also quickly add .....
..... that we're either walking in light or in darkness. It's one or the other. There is no "half born" position. You're either born again spiritually or you ain't.
Judging by the huge change that takes place in most people's lives upon conversion ....... judging by the spiritual transformation that happens ...... we can't say there wasn't an inward work of the Holy Spirit prior to speaking in tongues.
