Know. Your. Place.
Can people lose their salvation in Christ? Jim Putman, Senior Pastor of Real Life Ministries joins
Episode 1,218 - Know. Your. Place.
This episode is a meditation on the several ways the Party wants us to know our place. And sometimes it even involves weird instances where Satan tells the truth. The ‘Know. Your. Place.’ mantra says that you should shut up and not say the things that you see. You are to do as you are told. I share with you a fantastic bit of fact checking on reporting from USA Today as they show us “our place”. You can say whatever you want, as long as you are helping the Party, otherwise you need to shut up. A prime example is the former Home Secretary of the UK. She was fired after speaking up about the failure of multiculturalism. We also look at an interview Tucker Carlson had with Douglass Mackey who is going to prison for mocking Hillary Clinton. ‘Know. Your. Place.’ also extends to voter fraud and our bodies.
What does God’s Word say?
26 So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith, 27 for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.
A Mother’s Request
20 Then the mother of Zebedee’s sons came to Jesus with her sons and, kneeling down, asked a favor of him.
21 “What is it you want?” he asked.
She said, “Grant that one of these two sons of mine may sit at your right and the other at your left in your kingdom.”
22 “You don’t know what you are asking,” Jesus said to them. “Can you drink the cup I am going to drink?”
“We can,” they answered.
23 Jesus said to them, “You will indeed drink from my cup, but to sit at my right or left is not for me to grant. These places belong to those for whom they have been prepared by my Father.”
24 When the ten heard about this, they were indignant with the two brothers. 25 Jesus called them together and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them. 26 Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, 27 and whoever wants to be first must be your slave— 28 just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”

Episode 1,219 - Can people lose their salvation in Christ? Jim Putman, Senior Pastor of Real Life Ministries joins
Some really important and pressing questions have arisen as people now want to move closer to God. One of these questions being: Can people lose their salvation once they give themselves to the Lord Jesus. Jim Putman, Senior Pastor of Real Life Ministries, joins me to help answer this question. I also have received a large number of emails asking me “Do I have to leave my home in the ‘separate countries’?” Jim also helps answer this question. Jim and I share a long and insightful discussion as we dive into these topics.
What does God’s Word say?
13 Who is going to harm you if you are eager to do good? 14 But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed. “Do not fear their threats; do not be frightened.” 15 But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, 16 keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander. 17 For it is better, if it is God’s will, to suffer for doing good than for doing evil.
The Armor of God
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.

One typo would have changed that opening sentence into something "Hmmm"
