How do we know that Christ's death was effective for our salvation?

Answered in 2 sources

Christ's death is effective for salvation because it fully satisfies God's justice, ensuring that no punishment remains for those He died for.

The effectiveness of Christ’s death is demonstrated through its outcomes—specifically, it accomplished the purpose of redeeming sinners from the penalty of sin. Hebrews 9:12 proclaims that Christ obtained eternal redemption for us through His blood. His sacrificial death not only appeased the wrath of God but provided the righteousness needed for justification before Him. The resurrection of Christ serves as God's declaration that the sacrifice was not only acceptable but successful in securing eternal life for all for whom He died.
