Was he created by God or has he existed eternally?

Yes.
John 1
1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2The same was in the beginning with God.
14And 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.

Yes He existed before born on Earth. Jesus was Jehovah of the Old Testament. Jesus was the creator of Earth. He created all under the direction of His Father in Heaven. This is why He says he is our mediator with the Father. Once Adam and Eve partook of the fruit, man was no longer worthy to be in the presence of the Father. Jesus existed with no body, as a spirit. We all did. We are all sons and daughters of Heavenly Father. We all took part in the Council in Heaven and were present when Lucifer was cast out (Revelations). We all chose to follow His plan and come to this world to receive our physical bodies and to have our faith tested. We will one day be resurrected and will account for our actions on this planet. We will be judged accordingly. This knowledge is why I strive daily to be a righteous person. So I may once again reside in His presence.
Before you thumb me down, research your scriptures. You will find the truth of this.

Not as Jesus, but a the 'Word of God'. That is; according to the Bible. You see, He is God. I could show that textually in the Bible any day that I can sit down at the computer, in about 20 minutes or less with text from the Old and New Testaments.

(Colossians 1:15-17) . . .5 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation; 16 because by means of him all [other] things were created in the heavens and upon the earth, the things visible and the things invisible, no matter whether they are thrones or lordships or governments or authorities. All [other] things have been created through him and for him. 17 Also, he is before all [other] things and by means of him all [other] things were made to exist,
He lived in heaven as the first thing God ever created for billions of years before coming to the earth. They made other spirit creatures the earth and animals and then humans.

The answer is yes.
Of everything God created, Jesus was the first.

John the first chapter says that the Word (Jesus) was in the beginning and helped in the creation process. Jesus is, was, and always will be. He came to earth in his incarnate form (Flesh) to redeem man and acoording to the Scripture has returned and is on right hand of Father.

Yes...he was in heaven with God for years upon years before being turned into human state. And when he returned to heaven he became King, and that is where he reigns now.
Jehovah God created him. Jesus is his son. Two seperate beings, not one.
