1255. Even the evil and unbelievers, when in company with good spirits, speak truths, and even believe them
I heard two spirits who were from hell and yet spoke truths as if from knowledge and faith, even though they were infernals and normally could not know, much less believe, what they were saying. I was shown by an actual experience that this happens when they are in the company of good spirits, so that they are speaking from them, as if from themselves. For the evil do not know or like to find out that they do not have anything on their own.
