1109. When spirits are speaking from the heavenly [angels], then one can very distinctly hear whether they are speaking from heaven, or whether they are saying something at the same time from themselves. When it is from heaven, their speech flows without pause, in a stream, but as soon as anything is in it or joined to it that is bumpy, or not so fluid, as well as a distinguishing feature not expressible in words, it is not harmonious, nor does the spirit then recognize it as genuine, but notices the discrepancies at once. Whatever is discrepant is from the spirit.
