I don’t doubt for a minute that the original “source” of the necessary “knowledge” to determine the canon was the HS. We are told that. But I think it was more indirect than you do.

I keep praying for you brother. One day, only God knows when, you will come around.

[Kolokotronis]

“One day, only God knows when, you will come around.”

And God knows I need all the prayers I can get, being, as I am, a miserable sinner, among the worst. And you may be right. I might change. With God all things are possible. Look how he kept my people Orthodox through 1800 years, centuries of which were spent under the heal of the Mohammedan Eastern Barbarians...and our faith never waivered. Even here in this land of temptation and ease and license, we still worship as we have for those 1800 years. :)
