Never trust another person for your spirituality,
never emulate a person,
never believe everything another person may say no matter how good it sounds.
Discussing Scripture with someone who is profoundly and genuinely invested in the Word of God and depending on the Holy Spirit, can be a great help to us, however, asking the opinion of others who have used Scripture to validate their wrong doctrine, are not people we want to consult with, they will not be able to give us true answers based on the Word.
Test everything through the Scriptures and prayer that the Holy Spirit would show you truth.
John 16:13-14 "13 However, when the Spirit of truth comes, He will guide you into all truth. For He will not speak on His own, but He will speak what He hears, and He will declare to you what is to come. 14 He will glorify Me by taking from what is Mine and disclosing it to you.…"
You see, God promised us that if we seek Him, the Holy Spirit Who lives in us will tell us what we need to know. If we know His Word and we know Him, then we will have the answer to anything and everything.
Christ in us may delay the answer for a time, so that we can learn more before we get the answer. Then when the answer comes it will be intensely clear!!!
