The Open Bible Podcast Fernando Jimenez Contending for the True Gospel.... The Open Bible Podcast is for Christians seeking answers to understand the scriptures in their context and mystries. There are passages that can be obscure to modern readers due to historical or cultural references. Peter said that Scripture contains “some things that are hard to understand”, 2 Peter 3:16. The lack of understanding & knowledge can be deadly. Psalm 19:7: declares that the “testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple”. But the simple cannot be made wise by something they are unable to understand. Surely, the Word of God does demand the need for interpretation, explanation, and exposition of the scripture by diligent Bible Teachers. To comprehend God and His dealings with mankind in the past, and His plans for the future, is the main goal of these podcasts. Ignited Fortitude Bobby Valdez & Aaron Sharp At Ignited Fortitude we feel called to make disciples as Jesus tells us in Matthew 28:18-20, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you”. We know every person has been equipped with purpose. Throughout life we let the world and enemy wear us down and doubt ourselves allowing that fire inside us to dwindle or extinguish. The desire of Ignited Fortitude is to make disciples and equip the saints by igniting and continuing to stoke that fire through the power of the Holy Spirit. We are here to come along side you on the path which you have been called, so that we will be found standing firm in contending for the faith but never losing sight of our first Love, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
