The 12 disciples had Jesus and His words/teaching of spirit and life in them after His ascension. And when the Holy Spirit dwell with them on the day of Pentecost, He will guide them into all truth, based on what they've already been disciple in. For He shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall He speak: and He will shew you things to come. He shall glorify Me: for He shall receive of Mine, and shall shew it unto them. (John 16:13&14)

"And when He(Spirit) is come, He will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgement: Of sin, because they believe not in Me; Of righteousness, because I go to My FATHER, and ye see Me no more; Of judgement, because the prince of this world is judged." (John16:8-11)

The Spirit will guide them into all truth later, because Jesus have yet many things to say unto them, but they cannot bear them now with Him. (John16:12)

Conclusion; From the Gospel according to Matthew until to the Revelation according to John in the New Testament is the result of it. To us who have the Holy Bible and the anointing from GOD abide in us, we are teachable in the All Scripture within. (1John2:27)(2Timothy3:16&17)

Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth;
What an insight Paul received. What an experience he had. What knowledge was imparted to him. Taught to him by the Spirit of God in him.

Now, that gives you and I hope and inspiration knowing that He who lived in Paul, lives in us also and He Who taught Paul teaches us.

Personally, I haven't needed to be taught by a human teacher for years. I am taught by the Divine Teacher directly. I do not need Paul, Peter, John or any other teacher from the early or current church to teach me. Am I being arrogant? I don't believe so as I go straight to the Source, my Creators, and not to any mediator.

For the, not mature, I can see that they may require the assistance of those mature followers of Christ until they become mature, and can serve the immature. Why? So they can learn how to go directly to the Source, the Holy Spirit Who teaches, guides, and transforms them into the likeness of our Creators.

Oh, the joy of pointing people to the Creators and to see them mature so they can point others to the Creators.

Amen!..same here , we have direct communication with God via His Spirit witnessing Gods truth to our spirit.

No arrogance in that, as we are Glorifying the Father with our testimony.

Amen!!....I think I am still immature...I still get involved in arguing, I ask God to give me his grace in this area.....the old mindset still wants to rear its ugly head....God has definitely got me on the right track, he will never give up on me in that area, I talk with him all day mostly, every day, xx

We always point to the Living God who has shown us such mercy and grace, by becoming Born Again,xx
