My family beliefs say that Jesus is the son of God, through the holy spirit. He can't be God if he actually lived as a human being on this earth over two thousand years ago. He also can't be God if he prayed to God right before he died. Muslims however think otherwise. They seem to think Jesus was a Prophet, just like Muhammad is to them. I have never considered Jesus to be the Prophet. He seemed to carry a lot of values that God has, which says that he seems to be directly linked to God in some way. I've only ever thought of him as the son of God.

Sounds like a conversion ploy. To your credit, however, you're doing what makes sense once you believe... that is, you're trying to let others in on this supposed truth. In your eyes, I imagine, not spreading the good news is like leaving someone to burn eternally who might otherwise be saved.
But I am not a believer. I believe in something, and you could call it God, but there's so much connotation associated with the term that I'm not sure that's a good idea. I believe in life, in the interconnectedness of all things, in a great force beyond mortal comprehension.
I do not believe in the Bible, or any other ancient sacred text, for that matter. It is a text that has survived the age of myth, and I can't imagine any rational, active thinker believes it literally. It borrows liberally from other myths; OT - Noah's story is extremely similar to the older Sumerian story of Utnapishtim, for instance, and the NT ressurection may well have been an emulation of such older gods as Heracles, who visited and returned from the land of the dead.
There isn't room to do more than scratch the surface. That said, I'm only answering because this is a forum for doing exactly that. You are welcome to your beliefs, of course, and I hope they bring you a measure of peace.

Jesus is the Son of God, however, if you believe in the Holy Trinity, then the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are three different entities of the same being. So, yes, Jesus can be in more than one place at the same time.

Who I say Jesus is is relatively irrelevant. Who Jesus is is what really counts. He is God, the Son of God and the Savior of all who will accept that.
That may not seem important to some people just now, but some day it will be the only thing that matters.

Jesus is the eternal Son of God in the human form.The other members of the Holy Trinity is God, the Father who created us and the Holy Spirit. The Holy Trinity is one and the same God. That's why it's a mystery. Do you know that God, the Father has no divine form. The bible conjures Him as this old Man with a long beard and long, flowing robes. The Holy Spirit comes in the form of dove for peace. But they are one and the same.

Jesus, for me, was an extra-ordinary human being who was made out as the "Son of the God" by the followers. Such great people do not belong to any religion or physical boundries. They belong to all those who believe in them, irrespective of religion, caste or nationality. They are born as ordinary human beings and become great by virtue of their deeds, preachings and situations prevailing at that time. Jesus came at a time when the ordinary folks were in need of a savior, a hero, someone who could lead them and fight against the evils in their society. So did Krishna, Rama, Buddha, Mahavir, Mohammad, Nanak, Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, Mother Teressa, and many others in their respective times. They are great people and are not bound by any religion.

Jesus is Jesus, a cool dude who lived 2000 years ago, attempting to preach a message of peace and tolerance that was twisted for people's own gains.
Jesus was a man in a long line of people attempting to bring peace in the world.
Son of God? Dunno.
He prolly existed though.
He sounds like a swell guy.

Jesus was the son of god, which apparently would mean (according to some interpretations) that he was god's form on earth.
