I agree:

The foundation of our (Christian) knowledge is through the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit allows us to understand and surrender to Christ's claim "I am the way, the truth and the life - no man comes to the Father except through me."

Scripture, then, is the instrument and locus of God's revealed knowledge and truth concerning our faith and practice.

All other knowledge is interesting, but secondary.
