How do we know that Jesus is our perfect priest?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus is our perfect priest because He offered Himself as the ultimate sacrifice for sin, fulfilling all divine requirements (Hebrews 10).

The priesthood of Jesus is established by His offering of Himself as the perfect sacrifice for sin. Unlike the Old Testament sacrifices, which could never satisfy God's justice, Jesus’ sacrifice was once for all, and it perfectly atoned for the sins of His people (Hebrews 10:12). He serves as our high priest, interceding for us before the Father. His blood cleanses us completely and secures our reconciliation with God. This underscores the significance of His priestly role in our salvation, assuring us that through His offering we are perfected forever.
