Did He accomplish what He came here for at the cross? Yes
Did the verse mentioned or the bible mentioned that He accomplish our salvation and we are all saved? When Christ said that "It is Finished" He is referring to the prophecy that is written.
5 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:
6 In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.
7 Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.
Hebrews 10:5-7

Saved from what? from eternal damnation? was Ephesians 2:8-9 mentioned about eternal damnation? read it from verse 5 it says that we are saved from sins.
Because before Jews or Greek consider their works as good works and it can't saved them so by Grace they are saved and on verse 10 it says:
10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
So there are good works that is need to be accomplished.

to be born-again is the first step.
5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
John 3:5
so after being born again we will do what is needed inside the kingdom of God. and if we are inside the kingdom of God or after we have found the kingdom of God it will be:
33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
Matthew 6:33
His righteousness is next.
and righteousness is to follow His words in order not to sin:
34 Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.
1 Corinthians 15:34.
Then my Question to you IRONSIDE:
What is SIN?
Peace!
