So, why did Jesus have to be sacrificed for our sins then?
Kind of seems like your cherry picking is leaving out the the entire purpose for Jesus 'dying for our sins' stuff.
What other important Christian doctrine did you decide, by fiat, that you don't have to believe in?
Everyone sins so each person is guilty and in need of Salvation through the blood of Jesus Christ....now on the Jews, that is up to debate whether they were already Saved or not.
I accept all doctrine found within the NT I believe, much less so when the OT is involved however.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.
