Since you don't believe jesus is a god, do you believe that god is made up of the Father and the holy ghost.

God is the Creator
The Holy Spirit is in all of us. It is Gods way of being in us.
Jesus is a representation on God's Word in Human form. He is not god, he is God's son. understand?

I assume your question is who don't believe Jesus is Jehovah God?
Jesus is a god, abet a mighty good, who was created and receives his power from an Almighty God. Nowhere in the Bible is he ever referred to as being Almighty. He also is never referred to by LORD in cap letters. LORD in cap letters is where Christian who were falling into the trap superstition removed God's name and replaced it with LORD. They feared that should the Bible be dropped and falls open, that dirt might get on God's name and defile it.
As for the reference in the book of John where they say it says the the Word (Jesus before he was born on Earth) was God, the Greek spelling the Apostle John used for the word god, he only used in two other cases, when referencing Satan as god and men as god. He never used the spelling in reference to Almighty God. the word god is spelled four different ways in Greek.
As for the Holy Spirit, also a creation of God, done through Jesus. During the time when the Jews were still considered God's people, the Holy Spirit resided in the most holy of the temple. Only the very high priest could enter it, and they had to crawl on their hand and knees under the great curtain, made of spun gold, that completely covered the most Holy.
Remember when Jesus said that when the temple was destroyed, not a stone would lay upon another stone. Kind of crazy if you think about it that someone would so completely destroy it as to bend over and move a stone if it was laying on another, but they did. The reason was they burned the temple, which meant that curtain melted and flowed down through all the cracks. Cesar ordered the solders to take apart the temple, stone by stone, and scrap the melted gold off them.

God the Father, God the Son, and the Holy Spirit are one and the same. The Holy Spirit is a part of God, just like Jesus Christ is a part of God. The bible says, Jesus Christ is God. He was there from the beginning, he is the Creater. The Creater became a man and died on the cross for his creation.
((ALSO))
¶ And God said, Let US make man in OUR image, after OUR likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. Genesis 1:26
Yes "us" God the Father, God the Son, and The Holy Spirit.
((TIFFANY G, explain John 1:1-3 ))
1 ¶ In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and "the Word was God." 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
See..."the Word was God!", Jesus Christ is "the Word". Love to you. :O)

Jesus isn't the daddy isn't the Holy Spirit. Jesus is between the Godhead, the Trinity. Jesus is a similar because the daddy and equivalent to the Holy Spirit. Jesus even as He change into in His Emmanuel, "God with us" state and change into made somewhat below the angels like guy once quoted as affirming that His Father is larger than He yet He and Father are one and that if one sees Him, one sees the daddy. To cap all of of those: Jesus is God and he's with God the daddy and God the Holy Spirit from the eternity previous and eternity destiny. a million John a million:a million-3

Jesus, is part of the Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit are as one. God is a very large being, for as humans not to measure. And Jesus is His son.
The Holy Spirit has been sent to earth to be our helper, but is directly connected to God. like Jesus is.

Well, First of all, Jesus is part of the trinity, the godhead. The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. At one time, all three were one, but when the time came to send one to save mankind, Jesus was sent.
Now, you can say, Jesus has Godlike powers, can perform miracles, raise the dead, and other ability....surviving in hell for 3 days too, and come back to earth, I'd say he's got the gifts of a god, but, he is still the Lord's son....and the Lord is please with his actions.
The last key facet, is that there is no way to approach the Lord, but through the son, because of his gift, of himself, for all mankind.....he made a deal, to atone for our sins, but only if we accept it, freely given.

Actually to be a Christian you must believe Jesus is God.
John 1:
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
He also verifies his diety here
John 8:
56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad.
57 Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?
58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
And Here
John 10:
28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.
30 I and my Father are one.

Believing Jesus is God is a large part of what makes you a Christian :-)
If you're asking about the Trinity, this might help:

Even Christians don't believe Jesus is a God!!! He is the SON OF GOD. In the Christian religion there IS ONLY ONE GOD.
