How do we know that Jesus' death was effective for salvation?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus' death is effective because it was voluntary and achieved the redemption of His people.

The effectiveness of Jesus' death is grounded in His divine purpose and the fulfillment of God's covenantal promises. As stated in Zechariah 12:10, those to whom the fountain is opened are the same ones prepared to be convicted and mourn for Him whom they have pierced. This means that Christ's death was not a mere action but a saving work designed to redeem the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, inclusive of both Jews and Gentiles, demonstrating that His sacrifice was indeed for many.
