He was like an ordinary man to see. Yet his appearance was no longer important to the apostles after he rose from the dead and went to heaven, as the Scripture says -
2 Corinthians 5.16. Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we [him] no more.
Christ-like
He said something to effect of "I like your Christ. I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ."

One can portray Christ by our Christ like actions. We cannot portray him in looks as there is no description of him in scripture that can be authenticted. As stated it is by our Christ like actions can we portray him.
Gandhi admired Christ's teachings of love, forgiveness, and nonviolence. He once said, "I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ." Gandhi believed in the principles of Christ but criticized the actions of some Christians who did not follow them.
Christian by definition means Christ-like or like Christ. Adventists are Christians that go by the bible.

Seems that the Romans and the religious establishment at the time did not like Christ's teaching. This is according to the New Testament. To the honest inquirer, Christ's teachings might be seen as irrational or unreasonable.
The statement "I like your Christ, I don't like your Christians" suggests a distinction between the teachings of Jesus Christ and the actions of some individuals who identify as Christians. It implies that while someone may appreciate the principles and values taught by Christ, they may not approve of the behavior or attitudes displayed by certain followers of Christianity.
