We have one object of faith, Jesus...the cross is where Jesus paid for our sin, broke the curses, regain the blessing of Abraham. We have the blessing if we are in Christ...what Christ has, we have...the cross is where the transaction took place...without the cross and the shedding of Jesus blood nothing would be possible...the world would still be in sin.
Jesus paid for everything...He did all the work so we would be able to enjoy a relationship with the Father...we do not have to do works in order for God to have a relationship with us... our doing should be acts of love and gratitude; not so we can work towards salvation. Salvation is awarded through your acceptance of what Jesus did, not what you can do!! We can't do enough to earn our salvation thus establishing a relationship with God.
