Due to the hype surrounding the hit motion picture, Avatar, and in light of what I read this morning, I’ve been thinking about the fact that I’m glad Jesus doesn’t have an avatar.

As we celebrate Christmas, we need to remember that there is only one Jesus Christ, and he came to earth in real human flesh, lived a sinless human life, died a painful human death on a cross, and was literally resurrected, conquering sin, death, and hell!

It blows my mind every time I think about the fact that Jesus was 100% God and 100% man simultaneously!  Jesus was and is the real deal!  There has never been, nor will there ever be, anyone else like him, period!

Jesus is the only one worthy enough to redeem mankind, and through his blood God initiated the opportunity for us to enter into a relationship with our Heavenly Father!

That’s worth celebrating this Christmas, and that’s why I’m glad Jesus doesn’t have an avatar.
