How do we know that Christ abolished the Old Covenant?

Answered in 1 source

Scripture states explicitly that Christ fulfilled and abolished the Old Covenant through His perfect obedience.

Christ's abolition of the Old Covenant is grounded in His fulfillment of the law, achieved through His perfect obedience. The testimony of scripture reveals that Christ did not merely destroy the old covenant; rather, He established a new way of relating to God based on grace. In Hebrews, the author contrasts the once-necessary sacrifices of the Levitical priesthood with Christ's singular, effective sacrifice, which was accepted by God, marking a definitive end to the old system. As our high priest, He sat down after offering Himself, symbolizing the completion of all sacrificial requirements, thus establishing the New Covenant.
