How do we know that Christ abolished the ceremonial law?

Answered in 1 source

Scripture clearly states that Christ abolished the ceremonial law through His sacrificial death and resurrection.

Ephesians 2:15-16 explains that Christ abolished the law of commandments contained in ordinances, creating peace and reconciliation between Jew and Gentile through His sacrifice. In Colossians 2:14, Paul describes how Christ blotted out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, nailing it to the cross. This powerful imagery illustrates that Christ's death removed the legal demands that stood against sinners. In Reformed theology, the ceremonial aspects of the law were shadows of the reality found in Christ, who fulfilled all righteousness on behalf of His people, thereby freeing them from its demands.
