The job of the Holy Spirit is to convict people of sin righteousness and the coming judgment - Joh 16:8.
I think no, the Holy Spirit is at work helping people to see their need of Christ.
In Acts 24 Paul talks to Felix about these things and Felix is afraid I think this is the HS working in Felix.
Act 24:24 And after some days, when Felix came with his wife Drusilla, who was Jewish, he sent for Paul and heard him concerning the faith in Christ.
Act 24:25 Now as he reasoned about righteousness, self-control, and the judgment to come, Felix was afraid and answered, "Go away for now; when I have a convenient time I will call for you."

If you do not accept Christ or God does that mean you are committing blasphemy of the Holy Spirit?
Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is not as simple as just unbelief. Many people have come to faith after rejecting Christ - such as St Paul who persecuted Christians, and CS Lewis who was an avowed atheist. If you have committed sin against the Holy Spirit, it permanently estranges you from God.
How is the church a means to faith and salvation?
The church at large is not, in and of itself, a means to faith or salvation. God has chosen individual believers to share the message of the gospel. It is the Holy Spirit who prepares people's hearts and minds to receive and believe the gospel. No one can come to faith in Christ without the Spirit drawing them (John 6). Typically, a person will hear or read about what Christ has done for us and, when drawn by the Spirit, will want to know more. As God's word is shared with them the Spirit leads them to faith and salvation. It is often believers, as members of the "church," who share the "word" with them. In this way the church participates in bringing people to salvation.
Who would be the anti Christ?
"...as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, EVEN NOW ARE THERE MANY ANTICHRISTS..." (I John 2:18). "...He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son." (I John 2:22) "...many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist." (II John 1:7) Antichrist (against Christ) is a prevailing "attitude" (spirit) in the world. "...every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that SPIRIT OF ANTICHRIST, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is in the world." (I John 4:3)
How do Christians come to know Jesus?
A Christian will come or become a Christian by knowing and searching Christ Jesus, simply speaking or crying from their heart, their hurt and their soul asking or praying for the revelation or spirit of Christ to be revealed to themselves after truly repenting of their sinfulness and unholy nature. It does not have to even be an audible cry or voice or verbal dialogue. God is a spirit and hears the spirit of His creation.

What was the role of the Catholic Church during the reformations?
The Catholic Church has only ever had one role assigned to her, and that is to be the Body of Christ (Acts 9:1-5, 1 Cor 12:12-14). As the Body of Christ, ruled by Christ as Her Head through His appointed Vicar, St. Peter and his successors - the Popes, and guided by the Holy Spirit her role has always been to bring God to the people and the people to God. Her role is to show Christ's love for His people, and to be the conduit for His Grace so that they may come to heaven to be with Him for eternity.
Where did the Holy Souls who died before Jesus go?
everyone goes to spirit prison or spirit paradise before heaven. Spirit prison is for those who hadnt had the chance to learn about the true gospel of Christ ( like a school) and spirit paradise is for those who know and who will teach those in spirit prison. once the second coming happens, the judgment day will come and we all will be separated either into one of the three kingdoms of heaven (Celestial, terrestrial, and telestial. Celestial being the highest; where God and Christ live; and Telestial being the lowest) or Hell which is outer darkness specifically reserved for the most evil of people.
