How do we know Jesus Christ is the true tabernacle?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus Christ is confirmed as the true tabernacle as He fulfills the typology of the Old Testament tabernacle, representing God's presence with man (John 1:14).

Jesus Christ is the true tabernacle because He embodies what the Old Testament tabernacle represented. In John 1:14, we see that the Word became flesh and 'dwelt' among us, using the Greek word for tent or tabernacle. This signifies that Christ is not just a representation but the very presence of God among us. The tabernacle in the wilderness was where God met with His people, and now in Christ, we have the ultimate fulfillment of that meeting point. He is the mediator through whom man can approach God, as no other tabernacle could provide the true cleansing and reconciliation that is found in His sacrificial work.
