So OT sins were only forgiven because of what Christ would do in the future???? Can I add a few more question marks????????? So it was said in the Old Testament they were forgiven, but they weren't actually yet, but people thought they were?? This just gets confusinger and confusinger. Maybe this is where we need time-travel.
Timmy, I think a proper theologian (like myself) would see a difference between sins being "forgiven" and sins being "taken away".
