Yes, of course. The sermon on the mount showed us we no longer need to talk with someone to pray with God, we just need to speak and pray to Him. No longer a need to burn animals or sacrifice at an altar. No more rules regarding what animals we can and cannot eat - all of God's creations are clean. There are quite a few others. Try using biblegateway.com to look up the verses.

Jesus said he did not come to change the law but to full fill it! But he is the second covenant and the old testament law was the first! The first was law and his was Grace by his spirit, it has better promises, so what changed was the statutes and sacrifices, no more blood sacrifice because Jesus paid the price as the final sacrifice. God was not pleased with the blood of bulls and now requires a sacrifice of praise!!!!! How easy is that!

Begin with the 16th verse in the 5th chapter of Matthew and you will find what you are refering to reading through to the 47th verse. Then read Matthew, chapter 27, verses 45 through 53 and you will find the fullfulment Jesus spoke of in the 5th chapter.

Jesus did not abolish the Law of Sinai, but rather fulfilled it (cf. Mt 5:17-19) with such perfection (cf. Jn 8:46) that he revealed its ultimate meaning (cf. Mt 5:33) and redeemed the transgressions against it (cf. Heb 9:15).
Jesus venerated the Temple by going up to it for the Jewish feasts of pilgrimage, and with a jealous love he loved this dwelling of God among men. The Temple prefigures his own mystery. When he announces its destruction, it is as a manifestation of his own execution and of the entry into a new age in the history of salvation, when his Body would be the definitive Temple.
Jesus performed acts, such as pardoning sins, that manifested him to be the Savior God himself (cf. Jn 5:16-18). Certain Jews, who did not recognize God made man (cf. Jn 1:14), saw in him only a man who made himself God (Jn 10:33), and judged him as a blasphemer.
Peace and every blessing!

Yes He did. I don't remember all of them, but I do remember that He declared all foods clean, and that's why Christians don't usually eat kosher.
"Don't you see that nothing that enters a man from the outside can make him 'unclean'? For it doesn't go into his heart but into his stomach, and then out of his body." Mark 7:18-19
