Ветхий завет

Machine translation from the original · Show original
And in the Old Testament the holy Gospel was preached. For everything that in that Testament promised remission of sins, our reconciliation with God and the grace of rebirth refers to Christ and the Gospel. And those sacrifices themselves, as foreshadowing Christ, who sacrificed himself for the salvation of the world, signify the Gospel. For the sacrifices themselves did not cleanse the sins of men, but Christ, foreshadowed by those sacrifices, cleansed them. It is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to destroy sins (Heb. 10:4) - says the apostle.
