Is he the Son of God (Yahweh or as JW's say Jehovah)? Is he God (Yahweh, or as JW's say Jehovah) incarnate? Is he God (Yahweh or as JW's say Jehovah) The Son as in a trinity form? Which gospel depicts the true Jesus, Mark's, Matthew's, John's or Luke's? Everytime I think I have it right the only thing I truly know is that he died for us and is our savior other then that that's about all I truly know and understand of him.

Adherents of the Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses believe everything the Bible teaches about Jesus, and believe that the Bible is the only inspired infallible Word of God.
Jehovah's Witnesses teach that no salvation occurs without Christ, that accepting Christ's sacrifice is a requirement for true worship, that every prayer must acknowledge Christ, that Christ is the King of God's Kingdom, that Christ is the head of the Christian congregation, that Christ is immortal and above every creature, even that Christ was the 'master worker' in creating the universe!
Jehovah's Witnesses believe that Jesus the Son was created by God the Father, and that as a distinct person Jesus serves as God's primary agent. Jehovah's Witnesses believe that Jesus is much more blessed and powerful than any mere angel, but they also believe that the terms "archangel" and "angel" are not inappropriately applied to Jesus (see 1 Thess 4:16).
There are dozens of Scriptures which plainly show that Jesus is lesser than (and subject to) Almighty Jehovah God the Father. Obviously, all of the authority which Jesus received was delegated to him by Almighty Jehovah (God the Father). Caps are added to some citations below.
(Acts 2:36) God MADE HIM both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you impaled.
(Matthew 28:18) And [the resurrected] Jesus approached and spoke to them, saying: “All authority has been GIVEN me in heaven and on the earth.
(John 3:35) The Father loves the Son and has GIVEN all things into his hand.
(Acts 5:31) GOD EXALTED this one as Chief Agent and Savior
(Daniel 7:14) And to him there WERE GIVEN rulership and dignity and kingdom
(Matthew 11:27) All things HAVE BEEN DELIVERED TO ME by my Father, and no one fully knows the Son but the Father, neither does anyone fully know the Father but the Son and anyone to whom the Son is willing to reveal him.
(Philippians 2:9) For this very reason also GOD EXALTED HIM to a superior position
(1 Peter 3:22) [Jesus] went his way to heaven; and angels and authorities and powers WERE MADE SUBJECT to him.
(1 Corinthians 15:25) For [Jesus] must rule as king until GOD HAS PUT all enemies under his feet.
(Psalm 110:1) The utterance of Jehovah to my Lord [Jesus] is: “Sit... Until I place your enemies as a stool for your feet.”
Incidentally, where is Jesus' exhalted position? It is NOT replacing Jehovah God, because Jesus remains humbly at Jehovah's right hand.
(Psalm 110:1) The utterance of Jehovah to my Lord is: “Sit at my right hand Until I place your enemies as a stool for your feet.”
(Ephesians 1:19-20) the mightiness of [God's] strength, with which he has operated in the case of the Christ when he raised him up from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly places
(Acts 7:55,56) [Stephen], being full of holy spirit, gazed into heaven and caught sight of God’s glory and of Jesus standing at God’s right hand, and he said: “Look! I behold the heavens opened up and the Son of man standing at God’s right hand.”
(Matthew 26:64) Jesus said to him: “...From henceforth you will see the Son of man sitting at the right hand of power
(Romans 8:34) Christ Jesus is the one who died, yes, rather the one who was raised up from the dead, who is on the right hand of God
(Colossians 3:1) Christ is seated at the right hand of God.
(Hebrews 1:3) [Jesus] sat down on the right hand of the Majesty in lofty places.
(Hebrews 8:1) Now as to the things being discussed this is the main point: We have such a high priest as this, and he has sat down at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens,
(Hebrews 10:12) But this man [Jesus] offered one sacrifice for sins perpetually and sat down at the right hand of God,
(Hebrews 12:2) Look intently at the Chief Agent and Perfecter of our faith, Jesus. ...he endured a torture stake, despising shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
(1 Peter 3:22) He [Jesus] is at God’s right hand, for he went his way to heaven

Sounds like the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. 1. It bears the name Jesus Christ 2. It has a leadership of a Prophet and 12 apostles. 3. Same organization. 4. Male members of the church holds the holy priesthood of Jesus. 5. There is NO paid ministry. 6. We baptize by immersion 7. Yes, there is laying on of hands to receive the holy ghost. 8. We can bless people in the name of Christ, and we use a drop of 'blessed' olive oil. 9. God the Father, Jesus Christ, and Holy Ghost are 3 separate individuals. 10. The Church teaches that God and Jesus have bodies of flesh and bone. 11. Every leader/officer is called TO and BY revelation. 12. They do. 13. The Church sends hundereds of missionaries out every year. The first oportunity to serve a mission is when you are 19-21 years of age. Also senior couples also can serve another mission. 14. It is a restored church, it was restored to the world in the 1800s. 15. We do, in the holy temple. Yep sounds like the Mormon Church to me. :D

To me the true Jesus Christ is the Son of God incarnate and is part of the Trinity of Father Son and Holy Spirit.

I am a Christian, one of Jehovah's Witnesses. According to the Bible, Jesus was Jehovah's first creation, and is recognised as His son.

Jesus is the Son of Man - in other words, the son of God. Mary concieved him through the Immaculate Conception. As for which Gospel is the true one, they all are - they are the same story as told from each of their viewpoints.
