all the religions in the world worship the same lord in different manner. if u ask a muslim, who's ALLAH? they'll say HE is who is creator of everything. If u ask a christian, who is GOD? thy'll answer the same, jewism, buddishm will show u the same. and even all other polytheistic religions' true concept is based on one god, they might believe in several appearance of the same god but the one is the one. So whatever religion u r following, u r abiding by the CREATOR of the world, either in the way he showed or not; that's the difference

The term God represents the only almighty God of this universe. The term wherever used represents only the supreme power God.
But the term Lord may also mean a particular leader, or any person at a respectable position. Even Kings are addressed as Lord. It again depends on the context of the Usage. God is considered the supreme ruler and so often he/she is also addressed as the Lord.
The term Lord is also used by the Dark forces. But God always is God.

Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God (Matthew 3:17), is the one and only Savior given by God (Acts 13:23). Christ is the sole mediator between God and men (I Timothy 2:5) and the only way to God (John 14:6).
But we do not subscribe to the belief that Christ is God-Man. He is man in nature according to His own testimony (John 8:40) and the teachings of His Apostles (I Timothy 2:5; Matthew 1:18).
The attributes of a human being were found in Christ. He hungered (Matthew 4:2), thirsted (John 19:28), became weary or tired (John 4:6), slept (Matthew 8:24), and died (Matthew 27:50; I Corinthians 15:3). However, Christ as distinct from all men, is the only one who did not sin (I Peter 2:21-22; Hebrews 4:15).
He has been exalted by God and given a name above all other names, that at the name of Christ every knee should bow, those in heaven, and those on earth (Philippians 2:9-11). He has been placed by God far above all principality, power, might and dominion, and every name that is named, and all things have been put under His feet (Ephesians 1:21-22). Christ will eventually subject all His power and authority to the true God (I Corinthians 15:27-28). He had in so many instances introduced Himself as the Son of God but never did He appropriate the title “God?nor “God the Son?for Himself because He is not God but man.
Instead, We believe that the one and only true God is the Father, the Creator. We hold this belief because it is the doctrine taught by our Lord Jesus Christ and His Apostles (John 17:3, 1: I Corinthians 8:6). God is a Spirit (John 4:24), and, therefore, He has no flesh and bones (Luke 24:39).
There is no trinity of persons in God. Though the Bible speaks of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, never does it refer to all of them as gods nor as three persons in one God; rather, it points to the Father alone as the true God. The Son Himself emphasized that only the Father is the true God (John 17:3, 1) and that He himself is a man telling the truth which He received from God (John 8:40). The prophets also teach that we have only one Father who created us (Malachi 2:10); Isaiah 64:4, 8). He alone is God, there is no other God and no one is like Him (Isaiah 46:9)
God is from everlasting to everlasting, with no beginning or end (Psalms 90:2), immortal (I Timothy 1:17), and does not tire or become weary (Isaiah 40:28).
He alone is the creator of heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth and all things therein, and the seas and all that is in them (Nehemiah 9:6)

I think God is our Father, and the Lord is His Son. But they're all one in the same...as the Holy Trinity states.

No!
There is an 'overlap' but Lord (not lord) refers to Jesus. God (in English) loses something in the translation process, especially from the Hebrew. In Hebrew, there are several terms (ballpark 10) terms that get translated as god. Some Hebrew terms are singular, some plural. So i.e., not all English terms God, refer to Jesus only.

Normally Lord applies to Jesus Christ, and God either to the whole trinity, or just to the Father. No 100% rule though, they are all God so the terms can be enterchanged.

In general it is the same. But their are litttle lords and The Suprem Lord. We can see everyone as master and we are the servant. That is why in many cultures they say my lord to others subordinate to them. In sanskrit it is Prabhu, but Maha Prabhu is Supreme Lord. That does not mean we are God, but it is a way to take the humble position to call others Prabhu or my lord. Yes God is Supreme Lord.

They can mean the same, The Lord Your God. Or not. Such as when speaking of the lord your king...etc.

Yup, as is The Holy Spirit and Jesus Christ. 3 parts, ONE GOD/LORD.
Please, do not let others fool you into thinking that Christians, or Catholics for that matter worship 3 God's or something like that. It is like an apple. The core, the peel and the inside. 3 separate parts, but 1 apple. I know it sounds funny to explain it like that, but its really that simple, so it doesnt need something so complicated to explain it.
God Bless Your Day :)
