Not my interpretation. The Holy Spirit's. He promised to teach me. He keeps His promises. My heart is captive to the word of God, here I stand for I can do none other; Indeed God does Help me.

Good evening.

It is your interpretation that the Holy Spirit promised to teach *you* [Blogger] how to interpret Scripture directly. But the promise was to the Apostles, and to their successors. The promise to the laity is that through their adherence to the Apostles and their successors, the laity will be guided into all truth.
