Hello there,
I took a look at your latest post:
https://4loveofthetruth.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=8085&action=editYou seem to have inserted many Read More tags at the end of your content.
The Read More tag is meant to be used to create an excerpt on the front page. You place the tag early on in your post. That way, only a finite amount of your text displays on the blog page. When it is clicked, it opens up the full post.
It will not work at the end of your post, since all your content is already visible.
If you’re interested in more information about how to use the Read More tag, please read these instructions:

I know how to place the Read More Tags, I do not know how they ended up at the bottom of the post ?? It is surely not where I placed it. It is supposed to be just below the 2nd picture before the embedded video is where I put it. I will look again at it but for now the website is very slow. Thanks
