If you can't be a person of respect to use the correct name of Jesus than I don't feel I should show you the respect of an answer.

Jesus was Never Created. He always existed and has always been God.
The One True God is The Father, Son and, Holy Spirit. One God Three Persons.
They are all the One God.
1X1X1=1
look at the scriptures below, you will see Jesus claimed to be the I am of the old testament.
He clearly claimed to be God.
Exodus 3:14 KJV God said I am
And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM : and he said , Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.
John 8:58 KJV Jesus said I am
Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was , I am .
Deuteronomy 32:39 KJV God said I am
See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me: I kill , and I make alive ; I wound , and I heal : neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand.
John 8:24 KJV Jesus said I am
I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.
The Bible teaches that God is one God in three distinct persons: God the father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. This teaching is commonly known as the Trinity - Meaning that God is a "tri-unity" or "three in one." Now let me make it clear that Christians do NOT believe in three Gods. Nor does the bible teach that God is one person who appears in three forms or modes, which is an error. Throughout the concept that God is one God in three distinct persons may be difficult for us to grasp, it is what the scripture clearly teaches.
One God, Three Persons
First, the Bible teaches that God is one
Deuteronomy 6:4
Hear , O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:
Isaiah 45:22
Look unto me, and be ye saved , all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.
The Bible clearly teaches that there are not three Gods, but one true God. However, Scripture also teaches that there are a plurality of persons in the Godhead.
God the Father is
God - Phil 1:2
Creator - Gen 1:1
Eternal - Psalm 90:2
God the Son is
God - John 1:1; Romans 9:5; Col 2:9; Tit 2:13; Heb 1:5-13
Creator - John 1:3, Col 1:16
Eternal - John 8:58; Ex 3:14
God the Holy Spirit is:
God - Acts 5:3-4
Creator - Job 33:4, Job 26:13
Eternal - Heb 9:14
This teaching that all three persons in the triune Godhead are One God but three distinct persons, is seen throughout scripture:
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. (John 1:1-2)
we are told here that Jesus Christ - The Word of God- was "with God" in the beginning. If I said, "I am with my wife," you would not think I was saying that "I am my wife." In the same way, we can clearly see a distinction in John 1:1 between the Father and the Son. However, John also tells us that the Word "was God," so clearly He is the same God while at the same time being a distinct and separate person.
1 John 5:7 KJV
For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
John 1:1 KJV Jesus is the Word
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
1 Timothy 3:16 KJV
And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

The bible was rewritten by Constantine in order to better control the Christan's. Know this. God is it. that is all everything else is just...well, nothing.

Notice Jesus being referred to as "Lord" is never capitalized. Its because he was a lesser God. He was not God. He was God's son. LORD capitalized refers to Yah(w) God of Israel. There is a distinction between Jesus being called "lord" and God being called "LORD".
