The coding that was appearing on practically every one of our web pages is now officially gone (or should be). If anyone happens to see any coding appearing on any online file, please let me know by sending me an email along with the URL that the coding is on. I will immediately remove it by changing to our new programming recently acquired.
Plus solid black type has replaced the majority of the copy which was previously a bluish color. In addition, the copy has been indented so it will not be hard to see the beginning of some of the copy (including both the scripture and the questions), especially on some of the equipment that our readers currently use to view our websites online.
As for the future, we are still determining what and how we’re are going to make changes to our 3 websites. I will put more news here when it is determined. Thank you for your patience.

I have discovered the problem for several things on our websites. One is the coding that is appearing on all three websites is a problem I’m fixing currently. It won’t come back as the updating of a new program making these changes will ensure that.
Secondary, all of the copy is now in black instead of the bluish type as previous making for easier reading. In addition, the left margin for all scriptures/explanations and questions is being addressed and every one of the 1630 chapters is now being fixed. You may expect this to be finished in approximately 2 weeks.
This is being done as a prelude to figuring out how to update the 3 sites, making it easier for all to enjoy the experience you will receive by coming to our site/s. We are not for absolute certainty that everything will be brought into one site yet or not. But rest assured we are doing what we can to make it a site or sites that you will certainly enjoy. Especially with some of the new things we are looking at adding.

As many of you have noticed, we are having problems with coding appearing on just about all pages of our 3 websites (www.bible-studys.org, www.discoverrevelation.com and www.gatewaybiblestudys.org). We are in the process of figuring out what is causing this problem and will try and get this fixed as quickly as possible. At this time this does not affect any copy that is online.
In the meantime, everything is running normally as PDF’s can be downloaded, questions being sent to us are being answered, and all other functions seem to be working as they should.
The intended merger of all 3 websites into one will be postponed at this time. We are in the process of contacting a Freelancer to assist us with the problems we’re having, which due to the thousands of pages involved, could take a few months to fix.

Sometime in August on a very hot day, I took my dog for a walk. Our normal walks would be some 3 plus miles, but on that day, after 1 mile I started to have pain in my right leg. It was becoming so bad that I decided to turn around and go back to my car. I was limping badly by the time I returned to the car.
Unfortunately, during the days that followed the pain worsened and I finally went to my doctor and had it checked out. In late September it was determined that I would need to have an MRI to determine what was wrong as it wasn’t getting any better. Finally in mid-October (after the right leg had swollen to about 3 inches in circumference larger, then the upper thigh of my left leg), I had an MRI done and shortly later it was determined that I would need surgery for a deep hematoma that was approximately 11 inches long. Approximately 27 ounces of blood was collected by a device that was attached to my leg. I was admitted to a hospital the last week of October and discharged the first week of November.
During this time, I also noticed that my memory had been affected. Previous to this time, we had been having our house totally renovated by repainted inside, flooring updated, popcorn ceilings removed and will be installing new baseboards. Our house during this ordeal was completely in shambles. After surgery, I spent weeks sleeping on our couch in the living room while the bedrooms were being updated with new carpeting and pad. After this happened, this project has been a total nightmare!
My youngest son moved in with us and has been a lot of help, as I am not supposed to lift more that 15 pounds and I am supposed to be doing leg exercises which I haven’t stated yet as of today. I can walk and drive a car now, but my right knee doesn’t want to bend and that’s why I need to do the exercises.
Now having said all of that, my first on the list of things I must do is to answer a lot of questions which has been written to me online. As of today, I am working on these but estimate a week to two to get everything caught up.
After getting those emails caught up, I will begin to work on redoing the current 3 websites and will work on getting those 3 sites merged into one. This should have been done previously but wasn’t. Now I know and see why the sites must be merged so that we can have better control over the layout and especially where the copy on the left starts which is problematic with some systems which can’t see the copy very well, especially where the copy on the left is blocked for some devices.
When the 3 web sites are merged, they will be simply https://gatewaybiblestudys.org/
Thank you for being patient with me as I go through some very difficult things I am having to deal with.
