There are "two" that have life in themselves, the Father and the Son. All other living beings in all creation do not have life in themselves but have their life in either the Father or the Son. So to answer your question does God predate Jesus the answer is yes but not anymore because Jesus has eternal life in himself.
But I have a different understanding,
Jesus said:The father is in me, I am in the father.
Jesus is son of man and son of god, that's it.
Jesus has his own personality,But God made Jesus, just like a mould made a mold,The mould is god,and The mold is Jesus.God made Jesus both in spirit and flesh.
but God hides himself in Jesus to show his true image.We see Jesus in the image of both Jesus and God.
Most of The time is the personality of God.
cuz we saw The mould and mold at The same time.
see Matt 26:39
This is more difficult to describe and imagine. It's like your personality is similar to your father or mother, but you still have your own personality.
God lives in Jesus, spiritually.It's not just living in it, it's like Jesus and the spirit of God are united.
Our bodies are the temple of God.but we are not holy as Jesus.

What Jesus shows is the thought of God, which is invisible.You can't see my mind.
Jesus was The only one who was made for The purpose,god wants us to understand him from spiritual.
Jesus has a holy spirit mind as god,and god lives in Jesus,so called Trinity.
but if someone tell me Jesus is god, I would say that he never understand bible.

Some people on this site really sadden me...Why all the arguing and reporting others? Someone starts a thread asking a question, and then report others for giving their opinion. 
The nature of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit is another subject and a big one at that.... But who is Jesus is what we are talking about...
Jesus is God ( most agree with that) 100% fully divine. And 100% fully human, how this happened and how it was able to be, i can't explain.
It had to be that way or our salvation was not possible.
For humans to be reconnected to God the divine. we needed Jesus to reach across the gulf that sin has made and hold the Father with His divine connection and hold us with the human connection. We are restored through Jesus.
Rev 3:5 He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.
Mat_26:42 He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done.
Luk_22:42 Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.
Joh_5:30 I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.
Jesus had His own will, but showed us that following the Fathers will is the perfect way, but He did have his own will.
Jesus can't be the Father in human form, because Jesus stands before the father in Heaven as high priest and Jesus had to choose between His Fathers will and His own will. 2 separate beings. They are one in Character and one in their purpose and love for the universe, they are both perfect and Jesus reflected that to us so that we can see the Father in the life of Jesus.
when the sins of mankind were placed on Jesus, was Jesus separated from the Father for a time? Was Jesus guilty for a time. When we sin we are separated from God and the result is death. How did Jesus die? because of sin, which means the Father and Jesus were separated for a time. Jesus didn't die from the physical suffering, He was surprisingly dead way before the other 2 that were crucified. Jesus died from the separation caused by sin. Sin Killed Him.
1Jn 2:1 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:
1Jn 2:2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.

One thing that many have failed to mention is God is the SELF-Exsistant ONE. Eternal and so is the GodHead which is seen in Genesis chapter one and in John chapter one and in Romans chapter one. NO one person can fully comprehend the Eternal God's head. The Infinite God doesn't need to explain HIS eternal existence to the created. However, God has chosen to reveal Himself :
1. By "General Revelation" the things HE created Rom 1 and Gen 1-3
2. By Special Revelation HIS word
3. By Relationship through HIS SON by the Holy Spirit.
Jesus is the very expression of the living God known as the " Word" or Logos see John chapter one. the Incarnation of Christ is God revealing Himself in the flesh because No man could see God and Live as Jesus said IF you have seen me YOU have seen the Father also. Jesus is fully God and fully man. The human understanding is limited to grasp this. It is accepted by faith. The eternal Godhead cannot be explained with human intellect because the God we come to know in the three ways above, is much too great big, and vast for us to comprehend. You apprehend by the illumination of the Spirit, word, and relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ.
it don't mean a thing if you don't know the King
