I never said they do equate. However, if a person is continuously motivated by ego attachments and desires (power, prestige, lust, anger, envy, greed, etc), how then could it be said that they love God?

Yes, a person could be free from ego attachments and still not believe in God (as many enlightened Buddhists and some atheists are), but I believe that one day they will come to that realization. It is the culmination of the spiritual journey for them. They are but one small step away from encountering the reality of God's presence.
