Jesus is not God the Father; he is, however Jehovah, the God of the Old Testament; and he was made flesh and manifest among us.
Jesus said, "My Father is greater than I" (John 14:28), therefore, he could not be the same. Also, when he prayed to the Father, he said, "Father, if it is Your will, take this cup away from Me; nevertheless NOT MY WILL, BUT YOURS BE DONE" (Luke 22:42). If they were the same, one could not be greater than the other and they would have had the same will.
To see that Jesus was the God of the Old Testament, we read, "...and all [Israel in the wilderness] drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them, and that Rock was Christ" (I Corinthians 10:4). "They remembered that God was their Rock, that God Most High was their Redeemer" (Psalm 78:35). "I will proclaim the name of the Lord. Oh, praise the greatness of our God! He is the Rock, his works are perfect, and all his ways are just. A faithful God who does no wrong, upright and just is he" (Deuteronomy 32:3-4).
And in John 1:1, we read of two beings, both called God, but only one was made flesh:
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." and in verse 14 "The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us."

Yahweh/Jehovah is God in the Old Testament. He is God the Father in the New Testament, and Jesus is God the Son.

Jesus is God, the Son, also known as the WORD of God. The Gospel of John starts with, In the beginning was the WORD, and the WORD was with God, and the WORD was GOD. John also tells us just a few verses later, the WORD became flesh and dwelt among us ..... that would have been Jesus.
We also see in scripture that all things were made through Him (Jesus) so when we see in Genesis at the beginning of time in creation where God SAYS, Let there be light....and God SAYS...let Us make man in OUR image...and God SAYS..etc,etc.. When God SAYS...it is God's WORD...which is God, the SON...who became Jesus when he took on flesh.
And to realize when God "Breathed" life into Adam we see the complete Holy Trinity right in the first few verses of the Bible's first Book, Genesis. The original hebrew word for Spirit (or Holy Spirit) also means wind or breeze which goes along with breath or breathed....God's Breath.
God the Father (the Godhead) created all things through God the Son, the WORD of God who later became flesh to complete the New Covenant, and God, the Holy Spirit, the animating force of life and spirit.

Clarification:
Jesus was Jehovah, Yahweh, God the Son,(and a several other descriptions).
God the Father was separate from Jesus. In Gen (chapter and verse(s) at the moment alludes me) he was Melchisadek (see Heb. 7:3).

Yes? This question potentially needs some clarity. But so does my answer: Jesus is God, manifested in a physical body.

God has many aspects: yahweh, elohim, jehovah... You might want to check out the Zohar used by the Kabbalists. It goes into detail about the aspects of God involved in the creation of the body.

YES!
How did you know?
Who told you?
Do you have the teacher?
Is the anointing upon you?
Is what is written been made manifest to you?
1 John 2:27 And as for you, the anointing which you received from Him abides in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you; but as His anointing teaches you about all things, and is true and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you abide in Him.

I am going to provide you with a link to a couple of articles that tell who Jehovah is. I hope by reading them, you will clear up your confusion.

Jesus (the one spoken of in the bible) was just a carpenter. "God" is figment of man's imagination.
