1315. THAT ANGELS SOMETIMES SPEAK WITH THOSE WHO ARE IN THE DEEPEST HELL Through spirits I have heard angels speaking with those in the lowest hell, but by means of spirits. Although those who are there are sometimes let out of their prison-house for certain reasons, still there is such a gulf between hell and heaven that they can never pass over it, for by that gulf is meant that it is never possible for an infernal to enter into a heavenly society, as they are altogether repugnant to each other. 1748, Mar. 12.
