He spoke very kindly to me; I saw many spirits in heaven; they were wors.h.i.+pping G.o.d and obedient to G.o.d; they did not speak; they listened to G.o.d and were obedient to Him; and G.o.d was often speaking to them; and they loved Him. He was commanding them to look at evil and right things in the world, and they were very bright like clouds; thou couldst not see them, because they were invisible.
Angels are often in the world; they are always present with us, and in every place, separating the people's hearts, good from bad. G.o.d tells them to separate the good from the bad; and they are always soaring with their wings. Their wings have not feathers; they are like the clouds.
The angels are soaring always, and standing on the air and the clouds; they never are flapping with their wings; they are never tired, nor sleepy, nor hungry, nor thirsty, nor eating, nor laughing, nor smiling; I saw some more crying a little, because the people have sin _from them_. They are very beautiful like the sun. G.o.d is more bright than an angel. They can walk on everything in heaven and in the world, and in h.e.l.l they are not burned. G.o.d was sitting on the clouds, and on the air, and on the water. He is still, quiet; He never laughs. (His gestures here were striking in an astonis.h.i.+ng degree, and his whole mind seemed overcome, with a sense of the Divine greatness and glory.) G.o.d was very kind to the angels, more than all the world.
