8242. SPIRITS AND INHABITANTS OF THE PLANET JUPITER - continued

I have also been shown what the face of an inhabitant of the planet Jupiter looks like. Not that I have seen actual inhabitants, only spirits, whose faces are similar to the ones they had when they lived on their planet. But before I was shown what their faces look like one of their angels appeared behind a bright cloud. He gave permission, and then two faces were shown to me. They were like the faces of people belonging to our planet, white yet more beautiful, with sincerity and true humility radiating from them.
