"For the law having shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect.
For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because that the worshippers once purged should have no more conscience of sins.
But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year.
For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins."
I wasn't until Christ's atonement and sacrifice that man's sins could be forgiven. For then the law of Moses was fulfilled. What I pondered on is the quilt man would have carried, for every year he had to make sacrifice for his sins again. I know the hardest thing now is learning to forgive myself after repenting of my sins. It sounds like under the law of Moses one would have a continual feeling of not being completely forgiven. I'm not sure how it worked but once again I am glad for the time that I live.
