How do we know Jesus accomplished salvation?

Answered in 1 source

We know Jesus accomplished salvation because He declared 'it is finished', confirming He satisfied all requirements of the law for His elect.

The assurance that Jesus accomplished salvation lies in His declaration at the cross, 'it is finished'. This signifies that all the prophecies and requirements of the law were fulfilled in Him (Matthew 5:17). Romans 3:26 illustrates that through Christ's sacrifice, God is both just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus. The completion of His work means that believers can have confidence in their justification, as He bore their sins Himself, which allows God to maintain His justice while forgiving those He elected. This emphasizes the perfect and complete nature of salvation through Christ alone.
