But laughing very loud when the pastor is preaching due to holy laughter, is very distracting. It also makes new believers and new visitors feel very uneasy. I am not about to judge those who do it because I do not want to offend HS.

Let's see how city harvest KL handle this:
1. In City Harvest KL, when things like this happen a security and usher will escort the person to remote location and minister will be ready to handle that person. They have resources, they have people to minister. They have experiences. Ushers / Security has been trained, prepared, briefed before release into ministry field. The different between ushers and security, security wears black t-shirts with letter "security" but ushers dresses more friendly. Both ushers and security holds CB radios to communicate each others. City harvest at least has 500 to 1000 attendee for 10AM service. They need proper management in place in order to run the show.
2. Smaller churches, shop-lot size, 50 people congregation, don't have resources like city harvest. perhaps no room available, perhaps not trained usher, perhaps no security available. Many reasons. Then you know lah... cannot compare to big church like city harvest...
Let's see how i will handle this
In short, I can rebuke by saying like this: "I speak order in the name of Jesus !", provided that i am sure evil spirit manipulates this person to distract the preacher. Technically how ? I just speak / shout as loud as this person, unless HS instruct another detail. Any bible verse ? 1 Cor 14:33

You recall Jonestown? David Koresh?
...
That's why congregation must know spiritual warfare as well.
therefore we pray: In the Name of Jesus, anything that does not planted by our Heavenly Father we uprooted them and break them in the name of Jesus.
It's obvious that David Koresh was genuine in the beginning but get corrupted later on. Therefore that prayer above will guard a genuine good leader to stay good until GOD takes him home to receive his reward.
To be honest, the devil can raise another people like david koresh right ? therefore if congregation know how do spiritual warfare, how to pray to guard their leader. Many problems will be resolved naturally. Don't worry, GOD is in control.
How to put into practical work in malaysia today ?
1. You go to any church at your choosing.
2. You have peace and presence of GOD ? case closed, no need to go to no 3.
3. You don't have peace ? just say the pray above. Pray that first, think later, trust GOD the process.
4. Ask HS more what to do with that church, follow HS instruction.
