How many times have you heard your friends say to you, "The Spirit led me to do this. Or to do that"? We have to be very, very cautious here. Certainly, God, the Holy Spirit does lead us. But, in the New Testament, the primary meaning of the leading of the Holy Spirit is not to lead us who to marry, or what job we should take, or what city we should live in.
