I am wondering how the church justifies Jesus’s dying for the sins of others in order to save? When he was here before the crucifixion he forgave sins then. I would just like to know the difference.
 
This is probably a very good question to post in the Apologist forum.

They will probably be able to give you a concise and clear answer.
 
He forgave individuals He encountered.
On the Cross His sacrifice was needed to forgive all. Just as the jews gave sacrifices but only Jesus could be the perfect sacrifice to end all sacrifices.

Forgiveness for sins and reconciliation with God was won for all humankind living before, during, and after the advent of Christ by His self-sacrificial death on the cross.
