How would that differ from what you say the Bible says?

Spot on!
It "differs" in that I am doing the reading and thinking and comparing the words of Scripture to Scripture for myself with my own two eyes and ears. Unlike the RC who simply takes the word of old men and some changeable, quixotic magisterium.
Likewise, in the Bible I find that if I possess a true faith in Chirst I can be assured the Holy Spirit is leading my studies. I believe my faith in Christ is the faith spoken of in Scripture, and therefore I believe the Holy Spirit leads my sanctification.
Do I always get it right? No. No man, including the false bishop of Rome, gets everything right. None is perfect but Christ.
Read the Bible. In it you will find God telling you that you are actually capable of understanding what He's revealing of Himself to you, if God so wills.
The Bereans didn't make up this method of learning. Calvin didn't make it up. Protestants didn't make it up. The Bible tells us how to learn and profit by the words of God.
If God first gives us new eyes and ears, that is.
"The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the LORD hath made even both of them." -- Proverbs 20:12
I've known literally dozens and dozens of former Catholics who finally broke down and opened their Bibles and read them for themselves and were converted to the truth found in the Gospel that men are saved by God's grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone for God's glory alone.
