well, most christians define the cruxifiction as a moment where jesus suffered for the entire human race. in the Bible, even if it says that Jesus died for our sins, for all time, it is still not necessarily binding, in terms of 'what Jesus actually said' in the sense that the gospels are what Matt Mark Luke and John actually wrote. My point being, if you want to know the truth, don't ask here, where only radicals generally reply, giving you their own agendas. Go off, and perhaps do a non-denominal scriptures course or a non-relgious theology course and so forth in order to gain an objective (as opposed to selfish) view of biblical stories.

Couple that come to mind off the top of my head:
1 Corinthians 15:3: For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures;
Romans 5:6: For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.
Romans 5:8: But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
As far as the forgivness being for "all time":
Hebrews 10:10: By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
Hope that answers the question.

1 Corinthians 15:3
For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance [ Or you at the first] : that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,
Galatians 2:21
I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!"
(Christ had to die for us because righteousness could not be gained any other way)
Hebrews 9:15
For this reason Christ is the mediator of a new covenant, that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance—now that he has died as a ransom to set them free from the sins committed under the first covenant.
1 Peter 3:18
For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive by the Spirit,

1Jo 1:7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
Joh 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.
1Jo 3:5 And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin.
Eph 1:7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;
Yes the Bible is a very old "Book" and It is full of places that foretell and tell of Jesus being the one true redeemer.
History shows these things to be true. how many other "Books" and "stories" have stood the test of time as these?
search the four Gospels and they lay the truth-out very clearly.
to the second part of your Q- Man is born into sin due to the fall of Adam, once one accepts Jesus as the redeemer and asks foregivness for their sins they will continue to sin,,, all God asks is that we repent and do our best to be decent people after we accept salvation and we are cleansed.

Yes Christ died for the sins of the world for all time. How many of your sins were "future tense" 2000 years ago? all of them. It had to be for all of them or the consequences of future sins would make it impossible for future generations to recieve Christ. It is the life of Christ and not the death that is salvation.
Romans 5:10....
much more being reconcilled by the death of Christ, are we SAVED by His LIFE.
Christs death provided reconcilliation for all for all time...
Christs life gives life to the dead. The dead are us before we recieve Christ. I encourage you to read Romans. Remember the Old Testament is written to the jews and a new law is in affect for the world today. The law of love. There is now "no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus".
Rom 8:1 [There is] therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
hope that helps

Read Peter's Preaching in Acts, beginning in chapter two. This is, as far as we know the first articulation of the Gospel after Jesus' Ressurection. Later in Acts, Paul has similar words. But Jesus actually fortells the purpose of His death at the Last Supper. Read Matt: 26:26-29.

Oops, I just dropped my Tamborine.
Matthew 26:28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.
1 Corinthians 15:3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;

Hebrews 9:28
1Timothy 2:5,6
1 Corinthians8:11
Romans 6:10
His death provided a proper, legal basis upon which God can forgive our imperfection (sin).
Even now, 2000 years after the legal basis was established, we continue to be sinners.
However, God is willing to 'consider' us favorably and at the end of Christ's 1,000 year reign, sin will literally be out of our system.

Isaiah 53:
5 But He was wounded for our transgressions,
He was bruised for our iniquities;
The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,
And by His stripes we are healed.
6 All we like sheep have gone astray;
We have turned, every one, to his own way;
And the LORD has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.
8 He was taken from prison and from judgment,
And who will declare His generation?
For He was cut off [killed] from the land of the living;
For the transgressions of My people He was stricken.
10 Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise Him;
He has put Him to grief.
When You make His soul an offering for sin,
He shall see His seed, He shall prolong His days,
And the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in His hand.
11 He shall see the labor of His soul, and be satisfied.
By His knowledge My righteous Servant shall justify many,
For He shall bear their iniquities.
12 Therefore I will divide Him a portion with the great,
And He shall divide the spoil with the strong,
Because He poured out His soul unto death,
And He was numbered with the transgressors,
And He bore the sin of many,
And made intercession for the transgressors.
Daniel 9:
25 “ Know therefore and understand,
That from the going forth of the command
To restore and build Jerusalem
Until Messiah the Prince,
There shall be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks;
The street shall be built again, and the wall,
Even in troublesome times.
26 “ And after the sixty-two weeks
Messiah shall be cut off [killed], but not for Himself; ...
(incidently, Daniel 9:25 enables us to conclusively prove Jesus is the Messiah, since we can calculate His birth date using the prophecy.)

Romans 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
This is one of the great texts of the Bible, much like John 3:16.
1. But God
2. Commendeth his love toward us
3. In that while we were yet sinners
4. Christ died for us
