How come Oldman you do not identify who the spirit of truth you speak of but instead choose to play games of insinuation?
Therefore, we are asking here on this forum that you explain who the spirit of truth you write of
I can only tell you what I know is the essence and character of the Spirit of truth, for this is all I know of Him.
Only the pure and faithful Spirit that is faithful to love us unto death revealed by the Lord Jesus when He ministered and died on earth, will have no reason to deceive and offend any of us,
(by“offend” I mean offend so that we be harmed and offended eternally) such is the Spirit that is revealed by His true followers. This Jesus could not have lied because in His Spirit there can be seen no reason to lie. Recorded history tells us the faithful followers who witnessed the ministry and finished work of Jesus were in the end prepared to be persecuted to death, even tortured to death rather than live a lie and deny who they believed in or what they had witnessed: His commandments and doctrine, the love and wisdom, the miracles, the promises, the crucifixion and the resurrected Jesus Christ. Despite all the efforts of hypocrites, malicious liars and antichrists, this Spirit lives on in all His true followers still.
Whoever blasphemes against this Spirit will never be saved for there is nothing left to save them.
From the Father and the Son comes their perfect and eternal love for each other. Their love is their endless joy in their pure and perfect caring, sharing and giving to each other all that they are and all that they care to create. The Son came from the Father in eternity before creation began and He naturally looks up to His Father, but without the Father's only eternal child there would be no possibility for an eternal God known as "love", "God is love", as Scripture clearly proclaims, and this love cannot exist with one person alone. This love, this God called love, needs at least two free thinking reasoning minds, and through the eternal Son the Father became the eternal giver of joy in perfect caring and sharing, and through the eternal Father His Son became the eternal receiver and giver of this same Spirit. Without the eternal Son there would be no such Spirit of pure and perfect eternal love; and it is this eternal Spirit that comes through the Father and the Son, and with the Father and the Son, all creation is governed. This Spirit naturally embraces all knowledge and wisdom
and would mean nothing without being the heart or the innermost ruling character of a person.
The Father's Spirit is being given now to each of His chosen and gives new life by transforming our corrupt and deceitful spirits of pride and death back into one of humility and holiness, just as Adam and Eve were before the Spirit of truth in them was confounded and corrupted into something evil by their desire to know evil. The Father's Spirit will live in all His chosen ones and ultimately make their unique personalities perfect in knowledge, wisdom and love forever.
The finished work of Jesus Christ reveals in full His Spirit faithful to love unto death. This Spirit is the heart of God's personality. This Spirit is what governs His reasoning. Only the Spirit that has proved faithful to love us unto death can be trusted not to deceive and
"offend" anyone. Only when we are governed by this Spirit shall we be trusted to serve God and creation forever.
By reason, this Spirit is the only proven conveyor of truth, simply because there is no reasonable alternative in which we all can trust.
Whoever has contempt for this Spirit will never be saved for there is nothing left to save them.

If you refuse to answer, then this thread will be locked as this is a discussion forum, and not a place to spread a false gospel.
As you can see, I have answered. I am now seeking information from you so that I can find out more about you and the one you worship, then informed decisions can be made by myself and by others.
Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect. 1 Peter 3:15
God explains in Matthew 12:32 that every kind of sin and slander can be forgiven, apart from blasphemy against the Spirit.
Since you appear confident and sure that you know the God of truth then tell us please, what is so special about the Spirit of truth that makes blasphemy against Him an unforgivable sin?
You may have been raised from physical death by Jesus Christ B.W. but have you been raised from spiritual death? If so then explain the essence and character of the Spirit of truth you claim to know and worship. Explain why you believe that everyone who shows contempt for this Spirit is without hope and will be condemned forever.
