He fulfilled all that had been taught to the Jews and established his church. There are later prophets spoken of in the New Testament, so Judith R is wrong in saying that all prophets thereafter were false. His sacrifice on the Cross ended the need for animal sacrifice because he was the perfect sacrifice fulfilling the needs of all sinful men if they would accept it by repenting of their sins.

I can't improve on dansweaza's answer very much, except to pick up where he left off.
The Holy Days, being Sabbaths, are part of the Commandments ("keep holy the Sabbath day...").
Jesus fulfilled the prophets by fulfilling the prophecies of his first coming. Although I don't have a list of them, I've heard that there were a couple of hundred that Jesus fulfilled; and there will probably be a couple hundred more fulfilled at his second coming.
Jesus lived his life as an example to us of how to live Godly lives -- fulfilling the commandments, in spirit as well as letter, is the way that leads us to a better way of life, a fulfilling lifestyle.

For any and all solutions that pertain to "Christ is a fictional character." i could rather recommend reading "Did Jesus Exist?" by using Bart D. Ehrman. it is an independent view on the life of Christ. you will locate that he debunks virtually all the loosely-based arguments that Christ did no longer exist. many human beings basically have not got self assurance it, and that's their call to make. that's what makes it a thought after all. considering which you're a Christian. i've got discovered that element is extra effective spent praying for such unbelievers than asking questions like this on right here. you will locate that maximum persons are incredibly clever, and in the event that they have not study the scriptures, than they have study books approximately how the scriptures are erroneous or fake. as quickly as returned, many of the books written on those varieties of issues are very lacking in aspects and scholarly learn, yet that would not replace the effects that they've on the readers. happy you have self assurance what you have self assurance. and that i desire it quite is incredibly useful to you.

Throughout history, God has chosen prophets, such as Noah, Abraham, Moses, and others, to teach the gospel and direct His Church (Amos 3:7). It is no different today. We all need God’s guidance in a world that is sometimes confusing. Because God loves His children, He continues to send living prophets.
Just as God led the Israelites out of slavery and to a better place through His prophet Moses, He leads His children today into happier, more peaceful lives when they choose to follow His living prophet. I invite you to listen to the words of living prophets and consider how knowing God’s will can benefit your life.

Well, he claimed to be the promised Messiah. That would fulfill the prophets.
He teaches in Matthew 5-7 that a mere technical following of the law is not enough, we have to follow the "laws" set by God with the right intent - That fulfills the law.
Holy Days - I dunno. He never claimed that for Himself.

You must re-visit the Old Testament and read the prophesies. Isaiah and Daniel are two good ones. Daniel compares favorably with Revelations in the New Testament. There are numerous prophesies fullfilled. The Old Testament foretells and the New Testament fullfills.

Jesus is the promised Messiah. after him, all prophets were false prophets, working for Satan.
