Hebrews 9:14

How much more then will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death, so that we may serve the living God. Hebrews 9:14 NIV

This verse is the climax of a lengthy discourse on how the sacrifice and service of Jesus our great high priest is so much superior to anything that preceded it. We are saved from death, but our purpose in life is to serve the living God. It’s interested to note in this one verse how the Trinity works together to accomplish the greatest feat of all time, the salvation of every single person who has lived, is living, and will live. Jesus relied on the power of the Holy Spirit operating in His life in order to offer Himself unblemished to God the Father. Jesus blood poured out for us makes us acceptable to God.
