Dear Brothers and Sisters of the Family of Yahweh,

I have exciting News, Good News, about The WORD of Yahweh.

Our Father in Heaven has a Plan. That Plan is going exactly "according to Plan". Although "the adversary" ('common noun'"satan" Mistranslated throughout The Bible as Proper Name "Satan") of Yahweh is King of the Earth Now; his reign is drawing to a close.

Regarding the Return of Yesus (the accurate translation of "Jesus"), Paul tells us in 2 Thesselonians 2:3 that "that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first". The "coming" of that "falling away" is vastly misunderstood as a "future event". But the "falling away" began the very day Adam ate the Forbidden Fruit. The world has been in that "falling away" ever since. Just as the adversary and his angels were "cast out" of heaven and "fell to earth", Adam and Eve were "cast out" of the garden and symbolically "fell to earth". Man "fell away" from their heavenly father. Man will remain in that "falling away" until the millennium, when the adversary will be cast into the bottomless pit. Then, those who "keep the commandments" of Yahweh (Rev 14:12) will join Yesus to reign with him for one-thousand years.

The one-thousand year millennium is The Sabbath that culminates the week of our heavenly father's creation of the "New Earth". There is a good reason why Yahweh commanded us to "Remember" The Sabbath Day. The commandment is not just a commandment. It is also a prophecy. Six-thousand years (six days) shalt thou labor (sin) but the seventh day (millennium, seventh thousand-year period) "is The Sabbath of the Lord thy God".

The point here is that Yahweh's "Plan" has a "Set Time". Yahweh is a stickler for his "Set Times". The Study of "Set Times", egregiously Mistranslated as "seasons" and "congregation", is critical to understanding The WORD. But that takes more time and space than I have here. The "tabernacle of the congration" is actually the "tabernacle of the set times", the set times of Yahweh's Feasts. Our creator created the sun, moon, and stars, "lights in the firmament", for "set times", Mistranslated as "seasons" in Genesis 1:14. These "set times" are Yahweh's Calendar; days, months, and years. His set times are the drums that set the cadence of his way. Marching to that cadence requires familiarity with all of Yahweh's set times. Are you marching to the cadence of Yahweh? Or the cadence of the world?

The WORD reveals that Yahweh's "Plan" for mankind lasts "One Week", six-thousand years of sin followed by one-thousand years of Sabbath rest from sin. The prophecy of Daniel 9:27 is a dual prophecy; "he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week". "Many" is more accurately Translated "the multitude".

What Christians are not fully aware of is that Yahweh's plan, his "cause", is so important to him that he "causes strong delusion" to fall on mankind that "they might believe a lie" (2 Thes 2:11). Yahweh himself is responisble for the "Strong Delusion" mankind is under. Indirectly, that makes him responsible for the lies we believe.

That may sound harsh, maybe even sacrilegious, but not so much when we accept that he has his cause and we are part of it. So, what is this six-thousand year "cause" that is so important that mankind needs to believe lies to make it happen at Yahweh's "set time"?

To understand that, we come back to the "falling away", back to 2 Thesselonians 2:3-8. Verse 6 confirms the need for "delay" in "the cause".

    And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed ***IN HIS TIME***.
The adversary will be revealed when it is time for him to be revealed, no sooner, no later. The Set Times of Yahweh's Feasts (Lev 23) are a lesson in the understanding of Yahweh's set times, including the reign of the adversary and the reign of Yesus. We cannot understand Yahweh's plan/cause without a full understanding of Yahweh's feasts. Each Feast symbolizes a major event in the plan. With the six-thousand years of sin beginning when Adam and Eve were kicked out of the garden, mankind is approaching the end of sin. Theologians estimate that Creation occurred around 4004 BC. Six-thousand years from that date ended in 1996. Mankind is now living in "garden time". Six-thousand years ago, Adam and Eve were roaming the garden and eating of every tree execpt for the forbidden fruit. They had a lot to explore and learn. The Forbidden Fruit would be of minimal interest while a multitude of other new adventures existed. That is the time we are living in now.

But eventually, Adam and Eve became totally familiar with the garden and it became "common place", "boring". They had been in the garden so long that they were wandering it separately, alone. It was then that Eve was drawn to the Forbidden Fruit.

If we knew the exact date Adam ate the Forbidden Fruit, we could calculate the Return of Yesus and the end of sin. There is obviously a reason we do not know that date. But, time is definitely short.

That brings me back to the Good News.

Daniel tells us that in "the time of the end", "knowledge shall increase". This "knowledge" is generally thought to be "college knowledge". But I believe it is "spritual knowledge" that "shall increase". I believe that part of the "strong delusion" of Yahweh is the "closing up" of The WORD. If man was able to completely understand The WORD, sin would be revealed before Yahweh's "set time" for it to be revealed. To ensure that doesn't happen, The WORD has been shut to us. Daniel 12:4 tells us:

    But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.
Although this Verse specifically refers to Daniel's Vision, I believe it is True about the rest of The WORD as well.

But the Good News is that The WORD of Yahweh IS NOW OPENING. Unfortunately, it is still not "easy" to get to yet. And there are Words that are still "shut up". But, much is now available that has not been available to the common man in the past. Those who are willing to spend the time it takes to "Dig In To the Words of The WORD" can learn Truths for themselves instead of relying on the beliefs of others.

My hope and prayer is that before you run away because you see something here that you disagree with, you will spend a little time looking at the evidence presented. There are numerous Truths found here that do not agree with conventional Christian theology. I am continually surprised by the numerous Mistranslations found in every Bible that exists. I will be revealing how you can not only learn what The WORD Actually Says, but how you can know that you know what you know.

I am on a Quest to learn what is needed to navigate my course and stay on the path to the Kingdom. I Dig In To the Words of The WORD to Uncover Truths that will help me do exactly that. I have accepted that there are things I still won't see until Yahweh Opens that part of The WORD. But I get great joy from every Truth I discover. I have even come to relish correction.

My journey was way off course for most of my life. I grew up attending denominational schools with Bible classes every year. I was part of a denomination that had the whole truth and spent a great amount of time proving it. I was "in a mold".

The change in my direction came after reading Herbert Armstrong's booklets "The Crucifixion Was Not On Friday" and "The Resurrection Was Not On Sunday". Like all Christians, I knew beyond doubt that Yesus was Crucified on Friday and was Resurrected Sunday morning. I set out to prove Mr. Armstrong wrong, not to "discover The Truth". After all, The Bible is "very clear". After two years of research, including learning and writing my first computer program to calculate phases of the moon back in AD30 (Yesus was crucified on a full moon), I finally admitted to myself that I had been wrong all my life. I was devastated. My faith was shaken to the core. I was embarrassed. I continued my research for another year, looking for things I might have missed, before I finally admitted to anyone else that I had been wrong all my life. As can be imagined, it was not well accepted. It is more difficult to correct false beliefs than to learn new ones.

My life has not been the same since. I continue to learn things I was wrong about all my life. I have learned that The Bible is full of lies. I "credit" Yahweh for this, a Strong Delusion to delay man's understanding of The WORD, the withholding of the revelation of sin. It is Yahweh's Plan.

Since my devastating course correction, I have completed numerous drafts of studies I have conducted through the years. I have also written computer programs to make it easier to access The Bible and The WORD, primarily for my own research but made available to others. It is to this end that this web site has been set up. It is in infancy stage and still "under construction", but it continues to grow. Progress is slow because manpower is in short supply. Coming focus points include a) editing of Studies to make them ready for Public Viewing, b) improvements to the Morphology Reports, c) tweaking all web pages as improvements are identified, d) learning how and updating all web pages cosmetically to appear well on all media, and e) eventually getting back to programming the JCS computer generated Bible, the JCS Study Bible; not necessarily in that order.

This web site does contain potholes as we bring new Studies and Study Tools Online. It also contains Truths not intended for New Believers. JCS serves up the "meat" for those who have chosen to follow Yahweh's path, have been learning about his path, and are looking for answers to deeper questions.

If you are a fellow Word Digger, please Contact me. I would especially love to hear from anyone using Morphology in their Bible Studies. If you are a Word Digger and you are not familiar with Morphology, I recommend that you learn about it and bring it into your Studying. Morphology is Critical to understanding the Words of The WORD.

I would also love to hear from anyone with legitimate questions or comments about The Bible, The WORD, or this website. Thank you for visiting JohnClarkStudies.Bible ... May the Lord Bless you as you Dig In To His WORD.

Best wishes to all and peace be unto you,
