HEAVEN #3717

You are already on the other side of the mountain that you climb. You already are where you think is far away. You are already enjoined with Me. There is no far away except in your perception. From your perception, come your beliefs. Your beliefs are not always true. If you believe you are far away from the heart of God, or that God is far away from you, then such beliefs are most certainly not true. Oneness is true. The sun shines on all the same.

The dictionary gives for enjoin the following explanations:

1. to urge or impose with authority; order; enforce: to enjoin silence on a class
2. to prohibit, esp. by legal injunction; forbid: the company was enjoined from using false advertising
3. to order (someone) authoritatively to do something, esp. by legal injunction

but in the sentence above none of these makes sense to me.

Can anyone explain what "You are already enjoined with Me" means?

Dear Luus, The New Shorter

Dear Luus,

The New Shorter Oxford English Dictionary lists an obsolete meaning for "enjoin": to join together. The huge "unabridged" Webster also has it.

But you are right, this meaning doesn't seem to be given in modern dictionaries that don't list historical meanings.

Thanks a lot, Jochen, this

Thanks a lot, Jochen, this makes much more more sense.

Luus, I even found something

Luus, I even found something on the internet just now. Have a look:

Thank goodness -- it does

Thank goodness -- it does have the meaning: To join; unite.

That's what I had thought enjoin means. The prefix en means to make. Like enjoy, entrust, encapsulate, enact, endow, engage, enable, ennoble, enrich, envelop...

I never knew those other meanings.

Indeed Gloria, it is a good

Indeed Gloria, it is a good thing to stay closer to the origin of words. The latin prefix in-/en-, which means simply "in, into", is mostly used with verbs to intensify the original meaning or to stress it.

Thanks again, Jochen, you

Thanks again, Jochen, you are sooooooo good at finding on-line dictionaries for me and I put them all into my favorites. You may be sure that I will make good use of them.

That was the idea, dear

That was the idea, dear heart.
