Jesus' sacrifice was for past, present, and future sins. That would include the Old Testament prophets.

Dear Journey...Right you are! and there is an answer!
In Ephesians 4:7-13. the bible tells us WHEN HE(Jesus) ASCENDED ON HIGH, HE LED A HOST OF CAPTIVES. These were the "righteous" who were not yet "born again" because Christ had not died and rose.He also descended into the lower parts of the earth to preach to those he then took with him to heaven. This is proved in another scripture where Lazarus was being conforted in a place that was called "paradise" but was not heaven. see:Luke 16:19-31

I expect an answer to my question.

Jesus said no man can come to the father but by me


so the question is
What will happen to Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, Hosea and the rest of the prophets? Are they all lost? Because the word of God cannot be broken. Jesus said I am the door, no man can come to the father but by me.


No trick of the tongue please.
God's word cannot be broken...
Jesus is God in flesh. By obeying Jesus, we obey God. But it was possible to obey God before Jesus came to earth.

The question is;
All the prophets, how will they get into the kingdom of God if Jesus said that no one can go to the Father but by him?
Because Jesus is the Lord. From the time when Adam and Eve were kicked out of the garden, this
same Lord promised a coming Saviour. Throughout the OT, more information, of the coming
Saviour was given. They didn't know when He would arrive, but they all had faith in Him and His
coming. Who was it that met with Abraham? Gen 18:1 And the LORD appeared unto him in the
plains of Mamre: and he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day;
And what did Jesus say? Joh 8:56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad.
And Jesus said:
Joh 8:58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.

The Lord has been there the whole time, from the garden, to meeting Abraham, to leading the
Israelites out of Egypt, to giving the Law, to the giving of prophecy to know Him when He arrives.
Jesus said: Joh 5:39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they
which testify of me.
Jesus said He has pointed them to Himself from the beginning. He's been there the whole time.
The physical manifistation happened, when He created that body for Himself. But He has been there
the whole time.
