God is THE deity. Hence the term Deus. Latin n whatnot.
You'll have to create a more specific definition for deity if you want an answer better than that.

If I take your word deity and use it, even though it is mainly used for polytheistic religions. Then I would say "No, God is the Deity. There is but one."
A deity (from Sanskrit deiva) or a god is a postulated preternatural being, usually, but not always, of significant power, worshiped, thought holy, divine, or sacred, held in high regard, or respected by human beings.

Yes. Deity refers to anything held sacred or holy, so Christians revere Him as THE Deity.

I believe that a deity is a god so, yes, God is a deity.

Yes. All gods/goddesses/devils/good or bad spirits are deities. A deity is something that is immortal, powerful, and worshiped.

In as much as every soul on Earth is a part of the Universal God, my answer is yes. We must reconize the diety within us.

Is labelling really fruitful? God is everything good and everything true. Man can lay claim to neither.
