How do we know Christ is the better sacrifice?

Answered in 1 source

Christ is the better sacrifice because His one offering obtained eternal redemption, unlike the repeated sacrifices of the Old Covenant.

Hebrews 9 illustrates the superiority of Christ's sacrifice by contrasting it with the sacrifices of the Old Testament. The repetitive nature of the Levitical sacrifices failed to take away sin or purify the conscience. In contrast, Christ's sacrifice, made once for all, provided eternal redemption for His people. He entered the true holy place, not made with hands, and offered Himself— through His blood, He perfects forever those whom He sanctifies. This highlights that true purification and acceptance before God are achieved only through Christ's atoning work.
