Of course that is another argument... but in keeping with this one that you insist on pursuing what I have said is my belief.
Now, this could branch out into pastoral authority and all of the other stuff you don't believe in but in this discussion, I believe that the Spirit is my guide and my personal relationship with Jesus Christ is the determining factor for me.
i posted in the CM Becton thread exactly how I feel about all of this. Go read it and find out what this meaneth.
i never would have guessed you were a self righteous judge, Dan!

His Spirit and Word should be the guide...
and let us not forget that the Word is the revealed plan of God ...
It is as authoritative as His Spirit indwelling in us ...
What if a woman says the HG has told me it's okay ... is that a lack of the indwelling, PJ????
Would that measure up to a prescribed notion that some Spirit-filled folks use to measure the fruit of the Spirit?
I know some Spirit-filled/saturated women in slacks.
