What does it mean that Christ satisfies the demands of the law?

Answered in 1 source

Christ fulfills the law's requirements, freeing believers from its demands.

The significance of Christ satisfying the demands of the law cannot be overstated in Reformed theology. When we speak of Christ fulfilling the law, we are affirming that He lived a sinless life and died as the perfect sacrifice for our sins, thereby meeting every requirement set forth by God’s law. Romans 10:4 articulates that Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes. This provides believers with the assurance that they are no longer under the condemnation of the law, but are instead free to walk in newness of life through the grace offered in Jesus.
