According to Paul that's not always the case, angels can intentionally conceal their identity to make spectators unaware to the fact that they are angels, if you don't believe this then disregard Paul because obviously you can spot an angel with no problem, that's a remarkable gift to have! How many angels have you spotted so far?
I couldn't count the entire host.

He drove out a devil! HELLO!!!!?? Ever heard of the unforgivable sin?
Only devils cant drive out devils, the devil in Tobit was cast out by GODS WILL according to Raphael, if you say that the miracles and exorcisms in Tobit are done by the devil then just say the book is fiction and leave it at that because you claiming that devils can cast out devils and make things clean THEY CANT
Yes,
The unforgivable sin is murder

In OT times no canon existed
The protestant canon was never even commissioned by a council and officialized, it came from demands of protestants to the printing press
The Eastern Orthodox never embraced any thing other than the Septuagint because it's what the early Christians were using (before any canon)

If its believed by Lutherans that apocrypha books or at least some, contain contradictions that inspire heretical dogma, then why would any early Christian quote from it and why do Lutherans insist they are still good to read?
The apocrypha books are quoted by pre Nicene Christians and Church fathers 300+ times, you can find their massive library of writings at sacred-text.com

Im okay with you not accepting Tobit as canon but just ask yourself how the book ended up in the hands of Christians and into our bibles in the first place

Martin Luther actually wanted to keep the book of 1st Maccabees. He even referred to it as Holy Scripture. Luther said that you can’t understand Daniel 11 without 1 Maccabees.

He just wanted to get rid of 2 Maccabees.

But the early church declared both to be canonical scripture.

Hospitality unawares.

Matthew 25
[ And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.

34 Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:

35 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:

36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.

37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?

38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?

39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?

40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.]

And what are the brethren likened to in the resurrection.?
