Seems to be A LOT of confused people after the finale. So here's my theory (and a few other's) as to what just happened:
In the beginning we see Jacob and the other guy, let's call him Black shirt. For whatever reason, black shirt wants to kill Jacob and says he'll find a loop hole. For some reason, black shirt can't kill Jacob. But I'm assuming he has the power to replicate dead bodies as his own. So for example, when Christian appeared to be alive in season 1. We never found the body. Now black shirt is acting as Christian and trying to find a way to kill Jacob with the new losties.
Ben has never seen or talked to Jacob. He took Locke out to a random cabin and talked to a chair and even came up with the idea that Locke couldn't see Jacob because Jacob didn't want him to. What happened in the cabin is still a mystery and who knows if that was really Jacob.
Everything we've seen with Christian was really black shirt. He told Locke to move the island, knowing that it would result in Ben doing it and the time space getting screwed up. As Faux Locke, he told Richard to tell the real Locke that he has to die. When Locke went down to turn the wheel, it was black shirt telling Locke that he had to die. Knowing Locke would kill himself for the island. We can also speculate that it could've been black shirt who was posing as Charlie who tells Hugo they need to go back. And it was probably black shirt as Yemi, who maybe wanted Eko, but found him unworthy, Locke's death, and his telling Jack of Christian, effects Jack so much that he goes along with the plan to go back to the island, which is really just black shirt's plan for dead Locke and Ben to come to the island. Black shirt hides Locke's body and then becomes Locke. He uses Locke's relationship with Ben for the two to go see the monster. It's black shirt, as Locke, who tells Ben where to find the monster. Then black shirt poses as Alex and tells Ben the only way he'll live is if he follows Locke's every word. He then uses this to tell Ben to kill Jacob. So finally, black shirt is able to kill Jacob.
So it's really black shirt, not the monster, who can replicate dead people. In fact, black shirt may even be working with or have control of the smoke monster. Remember Locke told Eko he saw a white light the first time? If Jacob is the white side (back in the pilot they said there was a light side and a dark side) he probably has a version of the monster himself.
But yeah, so this was black shirt's plan that finally came to fullfilment in the finale. I think the question is now, if Jack's plan worked, did he just undo all this?
