God is my Heavenly Father. Jesus Christ is His Son. With the Holy Spirit they make the Godhead. Angels are administers. Satan and his angels are spirits ( without bodies.)
We all came from the same place and are like brothers. Heavenly Father is not our brother but Our Father.

No. From the Christian perspective they are, as follows:
1. God, Father/Son (Jesus Christ)/Holy Ghost: This is the "top dog," so to speak! God is the Creator of the universe. He is, what Christians refer to as the Triune God, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, all in one God-head. You might equate it to, say, a man can be a father, a son, and a brother, all one man, but three separate "identities" to that person. See website below for more complete explanation. God is eternal, FROM "forever" TO "forever." He is God, not a created being. He is omni- potent/present/scient (powerful, present, knowing) and all loving, but a "jealous" and a "just" God.
2. Angels/Satan/Satan's angels: Satan and the demons ("Fallen Angels") are all the same type of creature. They were created by God before the "universe" was created. They are eternal spiritual beings. At one "time" they were all the "same," but then, for some reason, Satan/Lucifer chose to REJECT God's Lordship, and there were other angels (demons/fallen angels) who chose the same thing and followed Satan. There was a great "schism" and the "bad" angels were cast OUT of heaven... not necessarily into "hell" but they were cast out/away from the presence of God. (see below)
3. Humans: God created Human beings, in His own image (personality traits), with an eternal soul, free will, and just a little lower than the angels, as far as their "status" in the entire scheme of things. (see below)
I hope this helps to begin to answer your question. There's a BIG CHUNK of theology you've chosed to "bite off" in that question, and many of the differences you may see and read make all the differences between the different faiths and religions that are "out there."
This answer, as I stated above, is what is specific to the Christian faith.
Have a blessed day!

God the Father, Jesus and the Holy Spirit are one: The Trinity. All equally God.
God created the angels. Satan was an angel until he tried to take over Heaven. God kicked him out and now he is over the other angels who sided with him. Those fallen angels are called demons. Satan, or the devil, is opposed to mankind, who God also created.
God wants all to receive Jesus as Savior and Lord so that anyone who accepts him will be given eternal life. John 3:16

God,Jesus and the Holy Spirit are the Trinity=One God 3 personalities. Angels were created by God , so was Satan(Lucifer) and his minions. The first 2 humans Adam and Eve were created by God and evolution so to speak took off from there.We all evolved from Adam and Eve

This a question of faith and mythology. The answer depends on which religion you follow.
For some God created all of them.
For some Jesus is the son of God, others think he was a ordinary human being, others still think he was a prophet.
For Satan, some thinks he's an angel (the God's preferred) who disobeyed Him and thus fell, others think of him as a dark god.
See matter of faith. Who knows who's right, this can't be reasoned.

God,Jesus and the HolySpirit are God. Sort of like 1x1x1=1 instead of 1+1+1=3.They are the creators.The rest are created beings and exist only for God's purpose.Because it takes free will to love someone ,God allowed the Angels just that.Lucifer decided he could be God and convinced 1/3 of all the angels to follow him.Now there is no forgiveness for them like there is for man.So when their course is run ....that's all for them.

The spirit is what gives life to the body. The spirit has only 1 possible Father, that is God the Father who arts in heaven.
In the beginning we were all children (spirits) of God the Father, who art in heaven, (created in His image) but some of us were not born of the Holy Ghost, born to Eve the same way Jesus was born. Some of us were born (in the flesh) by Adam the first Beast.
But our spirit is of God the Father, who art in heaven, our spirit must be fed, in order for us to know God the Father who art in heaven.
But Satan, created a beast and gave it power to deceive men as he gave power to Adam. The beast is MOSES.
Adam, the Temple, the Mountain and the Physical Churches are the Beasts of revelation
