How do we know that Christ's sacrifice fulfills the Passover?

Answered in 1 source

Christ's sacrifice fulfills the Passover by being the ultimate sacrificial lamb, whose blood provides true salvation.

The New Testament explicitly teaches that Christ is our Passover lamb, sacrificed for our sins. This fulfillment is clearly articulated in 1 Corinthians 5:7, where Christ's role parallels that of the Passover lamb prescribed in the Old Testament. The requirements for the Passover lamb—unblemished and set apart—are directly met in Christ's own life and death. Moreover, His blood, like that of the Passover lamb, must be applied to our lives for us to experience redemption. The visual act of sprinkling the blood during Passover signifies the necessity of faith for justification, demonstrating that faith is essential for receiving the benefits of Christ's sacrifice.
