I believe it’s possible because of the way I was saved. I got saved by calling on the name of Jesus during a sleep paralysis attack, as soon as the attack stopped (the demon bolted) I believed. This was literally after watching a YouTube video on alien abductions, sleep paralysis, demonic attacks, and stopping them by calling on his name.
What’s more interesting is that even though I 100% believed from then on, I still didn’t know the redemption story until many years later, because I was interested in other parts of the Bible like prophecy and giants, and skirted around The redemption story for years.
What makes it even more interesting, is I came across someone online debating me about Christianity, and he was an ex Christian. But he was saved the exact same way (I didn’t even mention my story before he mentioned his), he believed for awhile, then stopped believing and concluded the mind just played tricks on him. What are the chances someone having the same experience, and then believing, there are no coincidences. Except this guy stopped believing. While I don’t fully understand it because getting into how we get saved and whether it’s our will or Gods is a big complex issue. The Holy Spirit leads me to believe it’s something to do with this parable:
Mark 4:16-19 KJV
[16] And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness; [17] And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word's sake, immediately they are offended. [18] And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word, [19] And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.
So I’ve come to the conclusion from my own unusual born again experience, that being saved without hearing or understanding the Word first, such as in dreams, is totally possible.
