Or does "following His leading", mean conforming to some specific set of beliefs? If so, then what is that specific set of beliefs?

As I said before in answer to your question "Which of the Protestant denominations accurately represents the Apostolic teaching/doctrine?" - but this time, with emphasis:

Every assembly of 2 or more Christians filled with the Holy Spirit and following His leading and not their own - regardless of denomination, regardless of whether Protestant, Catholic, Orthodox, non-denominational, etc. - regardless of whether a formal meeting or a house church or a gathering around a dinner table or a campfire or virtually over telecommunications, the internet, etc.

Beliefs are on man's side. God knows.

God is Love and Light. When He says a thing, it is. He is. He is infallible, inerrant, trustworthy, all powerful and leads us individually according to His own will.

Let me try to rephrase my question. I'm asking you which of the denominations accurately represents the Apostolic teaching/doctrine. You are responding by saying: the Christians who are following the Holy Spirit's leading.

That just pushes the question back one step: Which Christians are following the Holy Spirit's leading?

If you answer: "The ones who are following the Holy Spirit's leading", then you are basically saying:

"I don't know which Christians are accurately representing Apostolic teaching/doctrine; I just know that whichever Christians are following the Holy Spirit's guidance are the ones accurately representing Apostolic teaching/doctrine."

And I hope you see how unhelpful such an answer [i.e. non-answer] would be.
