How do we know Jesus is our perfect sacrifice?

Answered in 2 sources

Jesus is proven to be our perfect sacrifice because He fulfilled the requirements of the Law perfectly and offered Himself once for all to atone for sin.

The New Testament affirms that Jesus is the perfect sacrifice through His fulfillment of the Old Testament requirements, particularly those outlined in the Levitical sacrificial system. Like the unblemished goats of the Day of Atonement, Jesus was without sin. His sacrificial death was not merely a fulfillment of the law, but also a satisfactory offering before God, as evidenced in passages like Ephesians 5:2, which describes His sacrifice as a 'sweet-smelling savor' unto God, assuring us of the adequacy of His atonement for sins.
