Jesus,God's first creation out of everything.
Made before angels,humans,etc.
That is how Jesus can be God's son.
He was a spirit creature before being born,and when he died he went back to heaven to be with God.
Christians have to face up to the fact that the whole Father, Jesus, Holy Spirit-thing is not new or original, as if only it exists because it had been revealed to man for the first time through the power of the Holy Spirit and all that nonsense. There were "god trinities" long before the Christian trinity came onto the scene, most notably in the Hindu religion where various trinities of gods reigned centuries before Christianity came onto the scene, The most well known Hindu Trinity (trimurti) is Brahma the Creator, Vishnu the Preserver, and Shiva as Judge.
It's a "which came first, the chicken or the egg"? In this case the chicken was Hinduism and the trinity-egg which came from the chicken is Christianity. Put another way, Christian churchmen stole the concept of the trinity from Hinduism, which had been around a thousand years before. Further, the trinity did not become church doctrine until the Council of Constantinople in 360 AD and its final form crafted in 381 AD. Wiki.

Maybe it's just me, but I think the more interesting question is did the existence of an actual Trinity-God inspire the religious (Hindu or otherwise) doctrine of a Trinity-God.
