I think Jesus was probably my colour!
I'm mixed race, part white British, part something else.
People usually ask if I'm from Israel, Egypt, China, Malaysia,
India, Singapore, Morocco, Mexico, someone once asked if I was from
lapland!
Maybe Jesus was mixed race, he was definately a mix of God and man.
Incidentally just got to tell you this, no offence intended to anyone.
Adam and Eve were walking in the garden of Eden trying to decide what
colour they were. So they went to God to ask and God said "You are what you are".
Still unclear on the matter they asked again the next day and God said
"you are what you are".
This didn't help much either so they asked for a third time and God said
"You are what you are".
"So what colour are we?" asked Eve to Adam.
"Oh no doubt about it we are white". Replied Adam.
"Well how do you know that?" asked Eve.
Adam replied "If we are black God would have said Ye is what ye is man".

He was swarthy dark if the Song of Solomon is describing Him.
Something very important contained within this subject. We will all be just like Him come the Kingdom, according to the Word.
This tells me we will be spirit like our Father, for He is Spirit and would be worshipped in Spirit and truth.
This also tells me if believers are more concerned with the appearance of the flesh, they are not yet part of the entire family, not fully, for we should concern ourselves with the spirit always, for this is our eternal being.

I think it is good that Jesus' skin color was not mentioned...sure his ethnicity is Jewish, but if they had mentioned a skin color/complexion then one race or another light/dark would say "oh hey Jesus looked like us so those who don't look like Jesus we're better than you." My answer is who cares....if he's dark or light at least He loved me enough to be abused and crucified and keep me out of hell. First thing I do when I get to heaven is give him a huge hug, it doesn't matter if he's white, black, brown, or clear like plastic....

I don't think He used sun cream, so I don't see how He could be white. On the other hand Salomon was white and red. Song of Solomon 5:10, the Dutch version, I don't see it in the English one.
I guess God didn't put it in the Bible how Jesus looks so we could have a great discussion about it when we're totally bored LOL.

The Bible doesn't give us the answer to the color of his skin, but here are some examples of a representation of Him in Revelation:
"And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters. And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength." Rev 1:13-16
"And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God." Rev 19:11-13

Several years ago I had the following dream.
I use to think of God the Holy Spirit as being a sort of vapour, force, power etc
Then one afternoon while having a nap I had a dream that I was reading a book,
only when I opened it there was 3 pages in front of me instead of the usual 2 pages.
On each page was a picture of the head and shoulders of a person and underneath each
picture was a description of each. In the dream I just knew I was seeing God the
Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. Then I woke up!
But upon waking I could not remember what the writing had said or what the pictures
looked at, I just had this knowledge of who I had been looking at.
I desperately tried to go back to sleep to have the same dream again but I couldn't!
But it was through but that dream that I was shown God the Holy Spirit is a person,
not just a force or a thing.
As for their colour - Naagh I can't remember! But if it helps the pages of the book were
white.

I once saw Him in a dream and He didn't look Arab or dark, a quite hip short beard actually, not very long hair and a straight nose I remember, saw Him from the side, but then I looked on internet and others saw Him different, so I wouldn't make a theology from it. Also He doesn't look now how He looked then anyway. In another dream I got He was huge, in the sky and with a robe with all colours of the rainbow.
