Nobody is "controlled" by the Holy Spirit. Guided maybe, but not controlled. You are free to ignore your guide's advice.


So in Heaven you are able to do all the wrong things that you do on Earth....That pesky free will at work, making wrong decisions.


In this life I get drunk as often as I want. I commit adultery as often as I want. I exceed the speed limit as often as I want.

You don't understand. Spirit filled individuals don't want to do those things.


Neither does the average person, 'spirit filled' or not. I have seen people who claim to be 'spirit filled' behave as badly as anyone.
