Ephesians 2:11-13 reinforces: benefits of Christ's blood applied at the moment of belief, not at the cross

Responding to Calvinist Arguments for Limited Atonement 00:58:11 – 00:59:44

Further use of Ephesians 2 to argue for the extent/application distinction.

"You were at that time separated from Christ... but now in Christ Jesus you who were once far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ" (Eph 2:12-13). The blood brought them near not when Jesus died but when they believed (Eph 2:8-9). This confirms that intercession/atonement benefits are activated at faith, not at the cross event itself.
