About Kootenai Church: Adult Sunday School - Question and Answer
This series of messages is a collection of questions and answers from the members of Kootenai Church and answered by Jim Osman, a pastor at Kootenai Community Church.
What does it mean that Jesus was truly tempted—yet could not sin? Can God use Satan to accomplish His purposes? Where do our souls come from? And does God still speak apart from the Bible today?
In this wide-ranging Q&A, Jim Osman fields questions from the congregation on some of theology's most searching topics. He opens with an extended treatment of Christ's two natures—fully God, fully man in one person—carefully distinguishing between what his divine nature and his human nature could experience, including temptation, exhaustion, and limited knowledge. From there he tackles the origin of the soul, laying out the case for a middle position between strict traducianism and strict creationism. The discussion turns to so-called generational or bloodline curses, where Jim draws a sharp distinction between the biblical truth that sin patterns pass through families and the charismatic error that demonic curses require special renunciation. He also weighs in on how God does and does not speak today, pressing back on the claim that nudges and impressions qualify as divine revelation comparable to Scripture.
Throughout, Jim models careful, pastoral reasoning—direct, often funny, and always tethered to the text. Whether you came with questions or not, this episode will sharpen how you think about some of the most foundational questions in the Christian life.

Q&A with Pastor/Elder Jim Osman - November 16, 2025
Jim Osman addresses pressing questions in a Q&A covering evangelical concerns and biblical faithfulness. Topics include The Gospel Coalition's theological drift, the modern deliverance ministry movement undermining Scripture's sufficiency, and the Seven Mountain Mandate infiltrating evangelicalism. Osman examines distinctions between essential and non-essential doctrines, female pastoral roles, biblical canon formation, and King James Only errors. He emphasizes that sufficiency of Scripture remains the central battle within evangelicalism today, as experiential theology displaces confidence in God's Word.

A couple of weeks ago, Charlie Kirk was assassinated. What are your thoughts on the sentiment that "if you go to church this Sunday and your church doesn't mention Charlie Kirk, find a new church"?
