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.Questions AskedWhat is the current state of The Gospel Coalition?What do you think about Al Mohler, Mark Dever, and Ligon Duncan's return to Shepherd's Conference?What issues within evangelicalism today should we be on guard against, especially for our children?How do you have a conversation with an unbeliever about God's sovereignty and evangelism?How important is a church prayer chain?What is the Seven Mountain Mandate and its connection to Turning Point USA?Are you a Christian nationalist?What resources would you recommend about how we got our Bible and why certain books were included in the canon?What is your position on female pastors in the church?How do you argue with people who are King James Version (KJV) only?Are there different shades of false teachers, and what about believers who fall into sexual sin like Steve Lawson?What camp would Solomon fall into - believer or unbeliever?What's the difference between Paul's response to the Judaizers in Galatians versus those who preached the gospel with false motives in Philippians? ★ Support this podcast ★
