Before Darth Vader "killed" Obi-Wan in Star Wars, Kenobi warned him that if he struck him down, he'd become "more powerful than he could possibly imagine". On Lost, Jacob was similarly "struck down", but still lives on to influence people/events (like through Hurley), as a spirit/ghost/whatever, much as Ben and other dead people annoyingly appeared to and haunted Luke, possibly even while he was using the bathroom for all we know, for the rest of his natural life... (poor Luke)
So Jacob is now completely "one with the Island", just as Ben became one with the Force through his death. Mission accomplished, Jacob.
