Why is it significant that Christ's blood is applied to believers?

Answered in 1 source

The application of Christ's blood to believers signifies personal redemption and forgiveness of sins, as taught in Hebrews 9:14.

The application of Christ's blood to the hearts of believers is vital for their salvation. Hebrews 9:14 emphasizes this truth, stating that the blood of Christ cleanses our consciences from dead works to serve the living God. Just as the blood of the Passover lamb was applied to the doorposts of Israelite households, signifying that death would pass over them, so must Christ's blood be personally applied to each believer's heart. This application is done by the Holy Spirit, who reveals Christ to the chosen and assures them of their forgiveness and acceptance before God. Without this personal application, one cannot be assured of their redemption.
