What does it mean that Christ accomplished salvation for His people?

Answered in 1 source

Christ's coming resulted in the complete redemption of those chosen by God.

The foundational truth of Christ's mission is encapsulated in His coming to save His people from their sins, as affirmed in Matthew 1:21. This speaks to the divine purpose of His life, death, and resurrection—accomplishing salvation for the elect whom the Father gave Him. This doctrine is central to historic Reformed theology, emphasizing that salvation is fully completed in Christ's work on the cross. The sacrificial death of Christ was effective in ensuring that all for whom He died will be redeemed, bringing them into a right relationship with God. Thus, the assurance of salvation is granted to those who believe, affirming the completion of Christ’s redemptive work.
