***The HS leads all believers at varying paces, and all believers reflect the HS’s leadership to varying degrees.***

Then one would expect that all believers would be in harmony.

***There are simply varying results, within time, according to God’s plan. It is a virtual certainty that both of us are wrong in some, or even several, of our interpretations.***

How can the Holy Spirit be wrong?

Well, on the MOST important core beliefs in Christianity, all true believers ARE in harmony. It might be a short list, but I assume you would agree that there are SOME things that must be believed for a person to be a true Christian believer.

Of course I didn't say or imply that. We know from common experience that people get it wrong, sometimes often, sometimes on an institutional level. Holy Spirit does not teach error, but He does teach on His own time table. Foundations can be set, with greater understanding added later. For example, earlier I followed OSAS and then I was showed the superior doctrine of POTS. OSAS CAN be interpreted in a way that is perfectly correct, but I didn't know what that was at the time. POTS encompasses more of the totality of scriptures. In none of this is Holy Spirit ever wrong.
