The Person of Jesus, He is what we are supposed to be. Not by theory, chapter and verse, or in a sense, but as He conducted Himself in this world so should I. Jesus is central, but we are considering the man Jesus, we are being made like him. Jesus is how God relates to the human populations.
There is an incarnation that is on going. God never intended to leave the earth without Jesus. He is the first born among many. We should do more than copy His life, it is not enough to read the bible and then try to be like Jesus. No, We abide in Him and He in us, becoming one with the Godhead Is Jesus living through us. It is a choice of our will but a function of the Spirit of God as He empowers us to not to copy Jesus but, to become Jesus. (becoming like Jesus, is too weak, but being Jesus might be too strong) The follower of Jesus is more than a copy-cat.
