Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. Romans 7:20 (KJV)

That's the way I see it. Same with 1 Cor. 5:5, where someone "within" is being judged, but stays within.

And God hasn't told you. If a so called prophet tells you, God still hasn't told you.

The Bible tells you all these things. The things the Bible doesn't tell should be your applications of what the Bible does tell you. Holy Spirt led applications of what the Bible tells you are your applications, not God's word.

Justify means "show to be just"; not "cause to become just". In James 2, works show that the person is just.

If the Bible doesn't foretell it, then God hasn't foretold it. All scripture is given ... that the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works. 2 Tim 3:16-17 (KJV) Scripture is sufficient. If a man or woman makes an extra-biblical claim; know that God didn't say it.

"sons of God" can mean 'men' in one passage and 'angels' in another. Children from angels & women is an extra-biblical myth.

By believing in God, as He revealed Himself to them - same as today.

Luke 16:19-31 will give you some insight.

I think He was just steering the conversation. Kind of like a parent asking a child, "What did you just do?" The parent already knows, but wants the child to consider what he just did.

People and animals die and their bodies turn to dust.
