How do we know that Christ fulfilled the sacrificial system?

Answered in 1 source

Christ's life and sacrifice embody the fulfillment of the sacrificial system, as He perfectly met the law's requirements and offered Himself as the ultimate atonement.

The entire Old Testament sacrificial system points to the person and work of Jesus Christ, who is the Lamb of God that takes away the sins of the world. In Leviticus, the various offerings—including the meat offering—serve as types that illustrate the grace and sacrifice of Christ. As the sin-atoning substitute, Christ's perfect obedience and sacrificial death fulfill the demand for atonement as seen in the burnt offerings. Through Him, believers are granted righteousness and acceptance before God because He embodies all the requirements of the law perfectly, enabling our worship and offerings to be acceptable.
