Perhaps this will clear up some confusion:
The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of truth. When a pastor helps you to grow and understand the Word, or a Bible study leader, or a conversation with a Christian brother or sister, it is not them it is the Holy Spirit helping you to understand the Word. They are simply a mouthpiece, not the source. Therefore let us not be consumed with personalities of names but rather let us recognize the work of the spirit of God and give Him all the praise and glory and grow closer to our Lord and Savior, deepening our walk with Him
