Where in scripture does it suggest that the blood of a human can obtain forgiveness?
Where in the OT does it preclude that Human Blood can NOT obtain forgiveness. If Animal Blood was able to cover (not fully redeem because it was needed daily) Sin temporarily, how much more so the Blood of He who is Perfect and Divine?
Well why wouldnt that verse be the end all be all when we're discussing the topic of someone coming to die for another's sins?
Because then everyone is blotted out of the Book? No one ever will be redeemed...
How can both be true at the same time?
I mean it was already given to you, Moses death wouldnt be able to cover their Sins because he didnt meet the requirements laid down in the Law. What is said about all the Sin Offerings? I quoted many of them already for example:
Lev 4:32 And if he bring a lamb for a sin offering, he shall bring it a female without blemish.
Do you believe that Moses was without blemish?
And since I dont have access to the book, Im not sure why you ask me who is or isnt blotted out of the book
I didnt ask if you know who is or isnt, I asked which Book specifically God is speaking about here. God has many Books, which Book do you believe is being spoken about here, knowing which one it is would be helpful in understanding the intentions behind the statement...
Thats a lazy interpretation that I've come across, but its not what the scriptures actually say.
So why on earth was it ever even instituted by God if it doesnt hold a massive importance? I made a post all about how central Sacrifice was to God, why would He go to such great lengths to set up the ENTIRE Culture of Israel around it, if it doesnt play a massively huge part in His plan for Redemption?
You keep saying its not what Scriptures say concerning Sin, but it actually does, I've quoted it. Why if you feint to be this strict follower of the Old Testament do you not put the same emphasis upon the need for Blood Atonement for Sin as God Himself did in the Old Testament?
What I see is you downplaying the fact that Blood Atonement for Sin is the Central aspect of Forgiveness set out by God and mandated over and over in His Law because you know the second you agree that Blood Atonement is the Central aspect of Forgiveness of Sin you will have to admit that Jesus is the only possible solution to allow God to keep His Law as He mandated and still not hold us responsible individually to have Sacrifices performed for the Atonement of our Sins.
Heres the facts, God mandated Sacrifice for Forgiveness of Sin, its clearly spelled out in His Law and it was the entire overriding aspect of Israeli Culture and Life, you can not have Forgiveness of Sin without the shedding of Blood for Atonement, if this was not the case then it would not have been Mandated and been the overriding aspect of Israeli Culture. No matter what you say this is fact.
Since this is fact, then what Sacrifices have been preformed for you by a Priest on your behalf to make Atonement for your Sins? If you say none (which for you at the moment is the case) then you stand guilty before God for all of your Sins. If we argue straight from the Old Testament you are condemned and have zero possibility until a Sacrifice is made for your Atonement period.
The next fact is, I and you can too, have a High Priest who has made Atonement for our Sins, who performed the mandated ritual that was given in the Law except He actually went into the Temple in Heaven and it was there that the Blood was applied. The Sacrifice met all the requirements, something Moses couldnt do, the Law was fulfilled and Sin was fully Atoned. However the Blood isnt applied to you until you actually believe, just like there was no Sacrifice for your Sin until you went and believed in what took place in the Temple of Israel.
Your free to say anything you want but facts are facts, and the facts are Blood Atonement of Sin was the central ideology of the Law and Israeli Culture, without of the shedding of Blood for your Sins you stand guilty. Either you are admitting you are guilty of Sin before God because no Sacrifices have been made for you, or you can find Forgiveness in the last and final Sacrifice of Christ, its your choice....
