When the thief on the cross died, how were his sins forgiven prior to his death?
Was he still obligated to the law and required to bring sacrifices for his confessed sins, or did Jesus forgive him with just words, a prayer?
For that matter, by what thinking did Jesus forgive others in the NT by just saying your sins are forgiven since the law still applied and sacrifices were required for those before his death, according to Christian theology?
Since Jesus didn't break the law according to Christians, what justifies him forgiving people without a sacrifice?
