Dispy/CT Comparison

I was googling for information about the covenant of works and came across an interesting site that compared dispensationalism with covenant theology.

Here's one of the comparisons:
Twentieth. Classic Dispensationalists will argue that the Old Testament sacrifices were not recognized by the Old Testament saints as Gospel types. They were only seen as such in retrospect. Whereas Covenant Theologians will argue that the Old Testament believers believed in the Gospel of the Messiah as sin bearer through the sacrifices their types and prophecies.
I was just wondering which scriptures/passages support this (covenant theology's) teaching?

A reoccurring thought:

Rev 22:20 He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
