I believe so. I haven't been a Christian my whole life, but I remember when I was young he guided me, the result...guiding me to Him. I didnt know it was Him guiding me at first, but once I learned of him and accepted him it all made sense, it connected.

I think the Christians only need the guidance from The Holy Spirit . We do not want any guidance from the Spirit. Let the Christians be happy with that.
We have our own Gods, Goddesses and philosophies and they are guiding us and protecting us.-

The holy spirit has been known to guide my dog from time to time and she is definitely not a Christian. What other explanation is there for her finding all of those half-eaten bones buried in the back yard. It must surely be a sign of the holy spirit.

Yes, if one is being led to repentance. Interruption and correction, contest and strife, might be better words. God's guide for non-Christians is hope.*
Consider St. Paul, knocked off his horse on his way to Damascus. Consider the slave trader who wrote the song "Amazing Grace." Of his encounter with the Holy Spirit he writes: "Twas grace that taught my heart to fear and grace my fears relieved."
The Holy Spirit is the person of the Lord Jesus Christ, who leads into all truth and is the gift of eternal life.
*As to the Eternal Spirit: We all live and move and have our being in Him until that life force is recalled. Aside from the sweet, lying and religious spirit of the god of this world; what guides non-Christians daily is the spirit of hope.
God hides, manifests and controls the actions and activity of men through hope and seals their instructions in dreams.

Good question. The Bible does say that God uses non-believers as tools to fulfill His will, but no, I don't think that means the Holy Spirit is inside them and guiding them, because the Holy Spirit can not enter you unless you allow it to (freewill).

As a Christian i've got faith interior the trinity made up from the daddy, Son and Holy Spirit and that they are thoroughly separate beings yet one hundred% God and that i do no longer propose there is 3 God's there is in basic terms one yet i do no longer think of we as human beings can or are meant to comprehend it yet as for the Holy Spirit it says that when you alter into saved via faith in Jesus Christ that the Holy Spirit is residing on your physique and have faith me it extremely is literal no longer metaphorical because of fact I certainly have experienced the great potential of the Holy Spirit in my life

I believe He guided Cornelius. I think He guides those who are really seeking God to find Him.
Though I can't give any source to support this, I find it probable that He would also guide non-Christians in matters that affect the Bible and interactions with Christians.

The Holy Spirit can convict somebody and then you will be opened up more to listen.

I believe the Holy Spirit is something that is in all of us. I'm not a Christian, but it exists in many religions. It's our concience, and also what allows us to connect with others.

Maybe you should ask if God ever guided non Jews?
Jesus answer this question especially since Jesus' ministry was for the Jews.
Paul brings further clarifications.
Answer: Since there is only one God, you do the math.
