Jesus is considered a Shakti avesha Avatar according to Srila Prabhupa said Srila Bhaktisiddhantha Saraswati Gosvami Maharaja declared this. Shakti Avesha Avatar means a directly empowered incarnation of God. It means he is a Giva Soul, but He was to be known as the Pure Son of God and that God spoke through Him and used him to spread God Consciousness and Religious Principles.
We should not keep the form of Jesus on the cross. Jesus form is represented and can also be there in the form of his Murti or form. We should worship him off the cross. Through picures or Murtis. That is bonafide worship. Idol worship means not to worship material gods or higher angels unnecessarily. One should glorify the holy names of Jesus or Yesuah and also of the Father Christ or Krishna. Hari bol!
The situation with Jesus is little different it differs more so you can't include with a Shakti avesh philosophy, he is actually a representation of the trinity, so he is not a empowered humanbeing for he is God, he came pure, he is not from human seed. He is the wordgod made flesh is what he is. And the thing is that he is exclusive in his position and didn't teach budhist philosophy but thought to pray and serve God the father, strictly theistic, and thought that there will be a judgement, and Jesus will be the judge so in perspective a very personal theme one can see. There is a hierarchy and Jesus is the King the top most and what he did is died to pay a death penalty for sin but only for those who have faith ! So that no 1 apart from Jesus can boast that he did something and got grace to live so only by faith in god's grace
