I always thought that the sacrificial death of Jesus wiped away our sin, removed the sin barrier between mankind and God. And now we can come boldly to the throne.
And the resurrection is what gives us eternal life. Jesus died and rose again. Before we accept him as savior we are dead in our sin but because of the cross that sin barrier is removed. Because of the Resurrection we've gone from being dead in our sin to be in alive in Christ.
So it's not just the sacrificial death of Jesus... it's also his resurrection that gives us eternal life.
