Bound by False Doctrine

Last night I had a dream about a man that had come to our church as a visitor and was praying at the end of service to receive the baptism of the Holy Ghost. He was about my height and build with very short blond hair. The Pastor and a few others, whose faces were obscured, were laying hands on him and trying to pray him through with their eyes closed. The man began lurching and flailing about as though he were being touched by God. Through the discerning of spirits, I could tell that the man was not feeling God at all and was writhing about in his flesh under false pretenses. The people praying for him were frustrated and a but confused as to why he did not get filled after all that and were prepared to walk away from him.

I approached the man to pray for him and God revealed to me that he would not get the baptism of the Holy Ghost because he had an unclean spirit of false doctrine in him and all of this was a show and a mockery. I admonished the man in the Holy Ghost that he was not feeling God at all, that God had revealed his heart to me and that he was clinging to false doctrines, not only in his mind, but had welcomed a spirit. I sensed that he had a staunch traditional trinitarian doctrine embedded that God was striving with him to yield and he would not. I rebuked him and told him that God would not move to fill him until he fell out of agreement with that spirit and repented of it.

I went then to lay hands on the man and began to pray, the Holy Ghost welled up in me but nothing transferred to the man, his spirit was not emptied and cleared for God to fill him. I began to pray warfare and rebuke of the resident spirit of false doctrine but it would not go, not for lack of Authority and Power, but because it was welcomed and willingly allowed to stay resident in the man. I withdrew my hand from his forehead and told him, until you repent and leave your false teachings, there is nothing that anyone can do for you here. God will not fill you.

Then I awoke.
