My Collected Papers

JRW Dubois website

Since Spring of 2017, I've been dealing with a spinal cord injury. This was the biggest and most unexpected change of life which I could never have imagined.

 

Without an accident, or trauma, without doing anything risky or daring, my injury simply began as pain in my right shoulder and numbness in my right hand.

​

The doctors told me that I have congenital spinal stenosis. Congenital means I was born with it. Spinal means the cervical spine in my case, and stenosis means narrowing. The narrowing refers to the space between the spinal disks. My spinal disks are still being compressed.

​

After two surgeries the pain has not improved. In fact, the surgeries have given me osteoarthritis, which I didn't have before and which cannot be treated.

​

The doctors say further surgery won't help. I must learn to deal with pain for the rest of my life.

​

​

​

​

So, with plenty of time on my hands and wonderful inspiration from God, mixed with hours each day praying, contemplating and discerning everything about my new life, I've been writing.

One of my first papers. I realized that my condition was zapping me of energy, all day and all night. I wondered about what might be happening, so I did research. This paper explains my findings.

Engage is misunderstood word. God's word is also often misunderstood. Read about how we engage in many things, but there is one engagement that is more important than all others.

Evil created time and death. Nature only knows timing, only humans know time. That's because only humans know that we are mortals. We fear our time is coming. Yet, we have a promise of life without time.

"What makes life better is when people can see, and care for, each other whether their lives are fast paced or slow paced." What do I mean? Read on.

Life takes us on many paths. Getting lost along a path can be very upsetting, even dangerous. People want to move and be moved, but not towards bad stuff. It's so helpful to find someone who know the way.

Faith and Love are not static like this text. They are dynamic, effective, engaging, promising, fulfilling and everlasting. 'The dynamics of Faith and Love have a way of turning us around from our unworthiness'.

Many people believe that at the end of time Jesus will come and separate the weeds from the wheat and the weeds will burn. But, what if a weed could become a wheat, before the harvest?

A murmur is a quiet sound which can grow into a warning that something is wrong, something needs to change. Listening to murmurs of the heart can right what is wrong in our life.

Our eyes see the light from the sun and our minds see the Light from the Son, Jesus. Both help to brighten and enlighten our lives and those around us. We use our vision to perceive the world and move towards God's Light.

Being humble is not easy. Like anything else, humility requires practice. But, first let's discover how our humility helps God to perfect us. Suffering is a gift that offers redemption through suffering.

Graduating is a big step in many peoples lives. Graduating to a new life, in a new place, with new neighbours and new holiness is a much bigger step. It's the step that leads to everlasting life in heaven.

Jesus said, "This I do for you" meaning
that He lays down His life for us.
We can do things For Jesus too, in our limited human ways, but Jesus needs nothing from us, so we do things for Jesus's mission and ministry.

Cannabis is legal in Canada since October of 2018. It's a vital component of my pain management routines. Without Cannabis, I would have used opioids for more than 5 years. Visit the website > here.

Some people think that evil, suffering and pain are the same thing. Pain is only one form of suffering and suffering is only one form of evil. Love knows evil, suffering and pain and knows how to deal with them.

Since childhood we've had a sense of what seems fair or unfair. We can be quick to judge a situation where someone seems to have an advantage over us. Judging others is not our job, in the end.

I once met a person who said, 'Being healthy doesn't make me happy', because he saw that I'm disabled. He should be happy about being healthy, but he's feeling odd about something. So what gives? What's a PWD?

How would you like to be perfect in every way? Sounds conceited, but, we will be brought to perfection, on the last day. In the meantime we still need to practice being perfect in His way.

Practice makes perfect.

Everybody knows pain. It's a way of being sure we're alive and awake. If you think you're dreaming you might pinch yourself. How do we test to see if we're awake in our faith? Read this paper.

The Internet has a lot of influencers, self-made celebrities, gurus, movers-and-shakers, viral video makers and shock-talk hosts. Do you know who the world's greatest influencer is?

'The ground is level at the foot of the Cross' is a popular phrase and song. It exemplifies peoples' desire to be treated equally, not greater or lesser. It's about being level headed. Be joyful always!

Do you know who God is? We've been told that His name is, "I am". That's because God is all that He asserts to "I am" in the Bible. I've compiled an analysis of 270 assertions of "I am" from both Old and New Testaments.

Science and Faith are not enemies, they're colleagues of truth. God is the original scientist creating an entire universe, and heaven, for His people of Light, His people of the Spirit realm. Light energy is life in the Spiritual realm.

How often do you look forward to the end of something? But, not everything ends. God's Love always was, is and always will be with us. What if we put an end to thinking about our end?
We are spirits right now!

Light does more than illuminate things we see, it teaches. Without light, we would not see our environment and wouldn't know as much about it. When light reflects off things we learn more about them. Humans learn by reflecting on reflections.

Please check back here from time to time as I never know when I'll add another paper.

The Human Intelligibility Intervention


​Many people have difficulty reconciling creationism and evolutionism. After all, science is empirically evident but Faith is as irrefutable as the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Science can’t test God’s creation and Faith doesn’t explain Homo sapiens evolution.
 

Resolving this dichotomy is vital for common
human unity. People divided are more easily conquered.

 

Re-uniting our thinking will reunite humankind.
So, how can creationism and evolutionism co-exist?
 

Perhaps we had to evolve for a long time until we were ready to be created anew. Maybe we were once one way, then someone intervened, and now we are a better way. Hopefully, someone greater than us gifted us with intelligibility.
