How is Jesus a gift from god?
After the first man and women broke their relationship with God, by disobeying God, it has been God's way for a person to sacrifice an animal - often a lamb - to maintain their relationship with God. When God chose the nation of Israel to be His representative on earth God gave them a sacrificial system to atone for people's sin. However Jesus came to earth lived and died as the "lamb of God". That is, Jesus was a sacrifice for sin and people who believe in Him will not have to face the consequences of their sin. In this way Jesus was a gift from God. People no longer have to sacrifice animals to restore their relationship with God when they sin. Jesus' death is accepted by God as a sacrifice for all sin.

Will pre Jesus people be saved?
People are saved if they trust God for salvation. This holds true regardless of the time they lived. In pre-Jesus time people were saved through their faith in the sacrifices God commanded of them. In so doing, they were looking forward in time to the Messiah who would be the ultimate sacrifice for sin. In post-Jesus time people are saved by trusting in Christ's sacrifice 2000 years ago. Past or present, salvation comes through faith in the provision by God of His prescribed sacrifice.
