Our Lord's prayer example before the cross. Since Jesus, the mediator of the new testament, had not yet died, his disciples were still under the law as given to Moses. (please see Heb. 9:15-17. Under that economy, they had to do something to recieve the benefits. Moses says "The man who does those things, shall live by them" (Rom. 10:5). After the cross, Eph. 4:32 says "Forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake has forgiven you". Also Col. 3:13 says "Even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. Since the cross, "the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death (Rom.8:2). Before the cross no-one was able to adequately forgive in order to have his own sins forgiven. Those of us that are translated into the kingdom of God (Col. 1:13) have many benefits that John the baptist and the disciples did not have before the cross. (see Matt. 11:11 & Lu. 22:32). Under the new covenant we are forgiven for Christ's sake and are now able to forgive one another. Willing to be corrected.

Since Jesus, the mediator of the new testamwnt, had not yet died, his disciples were still under the old testament law, which says, if you don't, neither will God. (see Heb. 9:15-17). The new testament writings state "God, for Christ's sake has forgiven you". "The law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death"(Rom.8:2). Those of us that are translated into the Kingdom have many benefits that John the baptist and the disciples did not have before the cross. (see Matt. 11:11 & Lu. 22:32. In the new testament, we are forgiven for Christ's sake and are now able to forgige one another.
