Bible Truths for KingdomScribes

WHY are YOU alive?

emil@KingdomScribes.net — Sat, 15 Dec 2007 05:59:00 EST

Are you alive simply so you can continue to survive? Do you live just so you can have fun? Rev 4.11 will tell you explicitly the reason God created you and keeps giving you breath. What's more, His reason for you to live is the most satisfying reason there ever could be. So just why is it that you're alive? Teaching by Emil Swift of Em&M Ministries.

Christmas in God's Kingdom?

emil@KingdomScribes.net — Sat, 15 Dec 2007 06:11:00 EST

Celebrating the birth of Christ is more politically incorrect than ever before! Christmas has been banned in the past (mostly by "christians") but despite its detractors, is still going strong. Recognizing the drawbacks of shameless materialism, "Santa" worship, theology re-written by Hollywood and many other difficulties, still God's people should be able to use this season to great advantage. How exactly should His saints handle, "Christmas in the Kingdom"? Teaching by Emil Swift of Em&M Ministries. (KingdomScribes.net) [52 min]

Will He Find Faith?

Sat, 15 Dec 2007 05:28:00 EST

Referring to when He returns again, Jesus asked His disciples if (when He comes back) He will "find faith in the earth". The question is really intended for His followers today. And unfortunately, most believers today do NOT have the "faith" to which Jesus referred. If He returned today, He would return to a largely "faith-less" Church. How is this possible? What is the "faith" Jesus is looking for? And what kind of change in your life is needed to remedy this spiritual glitch? Teaching by Emil Swift of Em&M Ministries. (KingdomScribes.net) [40 min]

Who'll Be a City?

emil@KingdomScribes.net — Sat, 15 Dec 2007 06:09:00 EST

Jesus taught that His people were going to be a "city set on a hill". God did not design us so that He could do some nice adjustments inside of us and let us hide from the world at large. It could seem egotistical, but when YOU grasp God's purposes in your life, you'll accept that He has put us on very public display! We're not going to do His work while we're hidden inside four church walls. We are awakened to spiritual things, in order to display them to the world around us.

When God Rocks Our Lives!

emil@KingdomScribes.net — Sat, 15 Dec 2007 04:00:00 EST

God intends for His people to spiritually move into new places -- until we are the perfect and mature "stature of Christ" in this earth. But when people have had a wonderful experience with God at some point, the inclination is to "camp" there until they die. God's people tend to "freeze in place". But He will pass us by if we don't continue on into the Journey down which He leads us. Occasionally, in order to help us, God will "rock" our lives to their very foundations -- but only because of His profound Love for us and the seriousness of His plan to bring us into our destiny.

Kingdom of God -- Reality

Sat, 15 Dec 2007 04:56:00 EST

God's main purpose in salvation is not to deliver you (eventually) from Hell. That's an important part, but Jesus came so that you could live TODAY -- a better life than what Satan gave you in the past! And this great, new Life is one led by the King and not we ourselves. Teaching by Emil Swift of Em&M Ministries. (KingdomScribes.net) [36 min]

Kingdom of God -- NOW!

emil@KingdomScribes.net — Sat, 15 Dec 2007 04:55:00 EST

There are transitions taking place in the Church today. The Kingdom of God is for today, not after He comes again. But if the Kingdom is NOW, it challenges and changes the lifestyle of the follower of Christ, because it is a Kingdom that comes in power. Teaching by Emil Swift of Em&M Ministries.

Releasing God's Provision Through HONOR!

emil@KingdomScribes.net — Sat, 15 Dec 2007 04:53:00 EST

The Bible declares that when we honor God in word and action, He is released to protect us from attack by our enemy -- both spiritually and materially. Passages from Malachi explored. Teaching by Emil Swift of Em&M Ministries. (KingdomScribes.net) [50 min]

Ca'Mon Jesus, DANCE!

emil@KingdomScribes.net — Sat, 15 Dec 2007 04:43:00 EST

Blessed are we when Jesus does what Jesus wants to do, and still we're not offended! People often tell God what they want Him to do, but the followers of Christ trust Him to lead in unexpected or even unwelcome places. Teaching by Emil Swift of Em&M Ministries. (KingdomScribes.net) [30 min]

Don't Tease Me, God!

emil@KingdomScribes.net — Sat, 16 Dec 2006 13:07:25 EST

Two stories from Elisha's day powerfully illustrate how we can lose God's intended blessings through an irrational fear that God is willing to "tease" us -- to make promises that He will never fulfill. Through this teaching, you can step into a place of greater confidence and faith to receive more from God than ever before! Teaching by Emil Swift of Em&M Ministries. (KingdomScribes.net)

Are You Living in the F.O.G., Yet?

emil@KingdomScribes.net — Fri, 03 Nov 2006 17:24:55 EST

The enemy can steal away the blessings of God from us if we don't learn to recognize & grasp the Favor that God pours daily into our lives...the Favor of God is the F.O.G. in which we live!

Worship -- Ritual, Rational or Relational?

emil@KingdomScribes.net — Fri, 03 Nov 2006 17:27:41 EST

Many people wrongly assume God wants them to "assemble together" every Sunday -- but the "assembly" of Believers commanded in Heb. 10 is NOT for ritual or rational purposes, but for Relationship with God and one another. And in that regular assembly we are NOT to "hold back" from our Spirit-empowered service to one another but serve each other in Love.

With the Measure You Measure

emil@KingdomScribes.net — Sun, 20 Aug 2006 02:13:21 EST

How we "hear" the Word of God determines whether we benefit from it or not. In fact, Jesus warns, some people are worse off by hearing the Word of God improperly! Emil Swift teaches from the Word and the Spirit how to listen to the Voice of our Father. From Em&M Ministries.

God's Word -- A Living SEED Planted in Your Spirit!

emil@KingdomScribes.net — Tue, 15 Aug 2006 02:28:13 EST

Every Word "that proceeds from the mouth of God" is a Living Seed. It is not "information" that the natural mind can understand but a "seed" in which dwells the spark of Life Itself -- Jesus, the Living Word. Receive God's Word in your spirit, not merely your mind, in order for your life to be transformed into that of someone "discipled by the Kingdom of God". Taught by Emil Swift of Em&M Ministries.

3 Tests of Your Personal, Prophetic Word

emil@KingdomScribes.net — Wed, 09 Aug 2006 00:26:04 EST

When you recieve a personal Word from the Lord, there will be three attempts to steal it away from you: once by Satan, once by a "brother" and once by God Himself! Here are three, Biblical stories that show each of these Tests and how to successfully get past them in order to press into the fulfillment of your Word! Teaching by Emil Swift.

TRUE Spiritual Discipline

emil@KingdomScribes.net — Wed, 09 Aug 2006 00:27:36 EST

People foolishly depend on regular "spiritual" disciplines (such as fasting, Scripture reading schedule, memorizing the Mystics, times of prayer, etc.) to automatically strengthen their spirits. But many are deceived. There is a true Spiritual Discipline, and this teaching makes the difference clear between what is True and what is false "spiritual disciplne". Know the difference... or else!

Father's Day - Return of the Prodigal

emil@KingdomScribes.net — Wed, 09 Aug 2006 00:29:39 EST

Human culture has terribly distorted the divinely ordained role of fathers. With typically bad models, many people have misconceptions about their Heavenly Father which interfere with Knowing Him. In this teaching, Emil Swift shows us from the Bible how to know the Father's Heart. By this, we will come into a deeper revelation of the Father's Love in our own lives. The Prodigal Son (and not the Older Brother!) found his own deliverance in knowing his father's heart -- and so may we.

Bearing Christ's Reproach

emil@KingdomScribes.net — Wed, 09 Aug 2006 00:30:55 EST

The Bible speaks of both Moses and us bearing the reproach of Christ. In this KingdomScribes' teaching, we see that the "reproach" we are to bear today in fact is the rejection and even persecution that comes from people defending old religious systems from God's New Move. Like old wineskins and New Wine, old and new spiritual moves of God cannot mix -- you either love the old and reject the new, or turn from the old and embrace the new. Emil Swift teaches.

REVOLUTION!!!

emil@KingdomScribes.net — Wed, 09 Aug 2006 00:33:04 EST

The Church doesn't NEED a "revolution" -- it's in the middle of a Revolution right now! We don't need to "promote" it but "adapt" to it. Part of leaving behind traditional religious forms involves a revolution from "old wineskins" to the New Wine of Jesus! Teaching by Emil Swift.

God Wants NEW Worshippers!

emil@KingdomScribes.net — Wed, 09 Aug 2006 00:34:34 EST

In the Bible, Jesus said to a prostitute by the well of Jacob that Father God no longer wanted "worshippers" in any traditional sense -- He wants worshippers who will worship Him "in Spirit and in Truth". This union of the Word and the Spirit is ESSENTIAL in the new Church Jesus is raising up in our world today! Teaching by Emil Swift of KingdomScribes ministry.

Don't Spill the Wine!

emil@KingdomScribes.net — Wed, 09 Aug 2006 00:35:28 EST

It's crucial for KingdomScribes to understand Jesus' Parable of the Wineskins. When God sets out to do a new thing ("New Wine"), He does NOT want to try and incorporate it into existing religious traditions. Doing so not only will break apart the traditional religious forms of men, but will "spill the New Wine" as well. What a terrible waste! Emil Swift teaches.

Surfing the Prophetic Voice of God

emil@KingdomScribes.net — Wed, 09 Aug 2006 00:36:32 EST

To understand the Bible deeply and accurately for yourself, you must first "position yourself" in order to interpret Scriptures in both Word and Spirit. Here are three, Biblical "pictures" that will help prepare you for understanding the Word of God better than ever before. Emil Swift teaches.
