Well, you seem...

Alrighty then.

You're the one suggesting he can't control himself, and that whatever action is taken is the "spirit's" doing. How often do you lose all control of yourself?

He's not controlled by the machinations of mere man. But if I am to walk with Christ, I had better "lose all control" of myself and let Him have complete control.

I am sold out to Jesus.

John 3:30 - He must increase, but I must decrease.

And you think this includes laughing and clapping and dancing at inappropriate times?

Then listen to what He says. Jesus founded a Church which The Word calls the "pillar and foundation of truth." Moreover, this Church must be a visible, doctrinally unified church since Jesus commands us in Scripture to take our disputes to the church. If you want Him to increase in your life then you will listen to Him speak through His Church.
