Rock4Christ View Profile History	AVATAR Posted : 20 Jan, 2011 08:40 PM I suppose that would depend on how you define avatar... in some sense He was a representation of God, being that He was the invisible God made visible, however, He was also 100% God as well. An avatar is usually only a representation of something greater, Jesus was that something greater. He only chose not to abuse that, but rather humble Himself to the will of His Father, as in according to the scriptures. So in the human sense Jesus is an avatar, in the Spiritual He was God. Jesus is 100% God and 100% man, 2 100% in one. Post Reply
klmartin62 View Profile History	AVATAR Posted : 21 Jan, 2011 04:03 AM We seem to always remember that the three are one, but we forget that they are also individuals. Jesus said, Joh 14:28 You have heard Me say to you, 'I am going away and coming back to you.' If you loved Me, you would rejoice because I said, 'I am going to the Father,' for My Father is greater than I. So, no. Jesus was not the Father's avatar, He was the Son of the living God. If you are working in a vineyard for a man, and his adult son comes to you and tells you to do something differently, do you take that as a suggestion? Or as an order from the father? In the Jewish tradition, a son was equal to the father, because there are no differences in desires, direction, or purpose. Yet no one ever considered them to be the same person. Leon Post Reply
