Yes, it is. How and why one is supposedly "saved" is a matter of competing and contrasting theologies.
Not at all. Stop dodging my answer.

The only part of what you typed that seemed pertinent was "No, it is not "just a matter of theology", which is a mistake, I think. The rest of your "answer" seemed like a spam bomb.

However, I am human, not God, and so I cannot see on a person's heart, so I do not know if they really do "love God".
JW theology is that only members of their cult can be "saved". It has been touted in their given-away magazines numerous times and they even have a few verses they think support their assertion on behalf of their non-profit corporation. You surely read some of robbie carrobie's posts on this? Only members of the JW cult can be "saved". You either believe that this theology is right or you believe it's wrong. Nothing happens in "the heart". That's for pumping blood. It happens in the brain. Theology is something handled by the brain.

If you aren't willing to listen to, and process, legitimate answers to your question, perhaps you should stop wasting our time with questions whose only purpose is to give you an angle for further attack, including mindless naysaying and outright ignorant mischaracterization.

Concepts of "salvation", "reincarnation ", "afterlife" etc. etc. are all matters of theology no matter how blue in the face you get.

And love for God is a matter for the heart, not the brain, no matter how bland in the face you get.

No. The heart is an organ that circulates blood around one's body. "Love" is a complex set of thoughts that reside in the brain. You're using the word "heart" metaphorically.
