How do we know Jesus is the perfect sacrifice?

Answered in 2 sources

Jesus is the perfect sacrifice because He was sinless and fulfilled all the requirements of the Law.

The perfect sacrifice required to atone for sin must be without blemish, and Jesus is this flawless Lamb of God. His life was lived in perfect obedience to the Law, even as He faced trials and temptations. Inspired by Leviticus, where offerings had to be without blemish, we understand that only a perfect Savior can cleanse imperfect sinners. Jesus' role as our burnt offering fulfills this requirement entirely, as stated in Hebrews 10, where His single sacrifice perfects forever those who are sanctified. Thus, we rest assured in His sufficiency as the ultimate sacrifice.
