The Holy Spirit will not, ever, interpret Scripture in a different way. He is a part of the Trinity and we know that God does not change.

Now, if for example you and I disagree upon the interpretation of Scripture, that means one of three possible things has happened.

1. You have incorrectly interpreted Scripture. 2. I have incorrectly interpreted Scripture. 3. We both have incorrectly interpreted Scripture.

The way we solve this issue is, as Scripture instructs, to interpret Scripture with Scripture. Whichever of our ideas agrees with the rest of Scripture is the one which is right. Tradition has no place here.

Thanks for your reply:

The way we solve this issue is, as Scripture instructs, to interpret Scripture with Scripture.

But how do we do this? We cannot put Scripture, or the Holy Spirit, on the witness stand.

Do we reason it out or does the Holy Spirit interpret?
