Does the Holy Spirit lead you into all truth?

If He does, how effective are His efforts? Does He lead you into all truth? All truth, really? If so, I suppose everything you believe is correct, no doubt about it! (But what about those other guys?

)

The other guys just don't know how to listen to God.

He will lead you if you are willing to learn. Most times we have too much pride to admit that what we believe could actually be wrong. He will lead us, but more often that not, we'll ignore Him.

Aw man, is everyone gonna vote 'something else'? Should have left that one off!

He will lead, but if you want all truth, you have to follow.

Evertyone says that! And it makes sense, I have to agree. But how can you tell if you have actually followed? You may think you "want all truth" (and I'm not really arguing that you don't -- that would be silly), but can you really say that about those "other guys" I mentioned? E.g., does one party of the AFP debate want truth and the other party not want truth?

Well, well. We have two Yeses! All truthers! Congratulations, you two. Hey, why don't you determine the winner of the AFP debate for us?

Not a Yesser here.... For sure.

YES! He will lead. But, he won't drive you into all truth! There's a VAST difference. To be lead, you must be willing to follow. Otherwise you are driven, and that is against your own will. He don't play like that.

I'm not sure how to vote. On the one hand, I believe that Yes, he does. But on the other hand, I know I think of it differently then the majority of the people here.

I think that the Holy Spirit leads you to Jesus, and continues to guide you in your relationship with Him. (As I believe that Jesus IS Truth, this constitutes as a yes to your question).

However, I don't think that means that He is a magic-8 ball that will give you all the answers to life, the universe, and everything.
