Distinction of God and Jesus

Gal. 1.  Paul references God the Father and Lord Jesus Christ.  The Bible clearly denotes a distinction between the two.  God so loved us that He gave His only son.  Here we are reminded that God had only one child and He gave him to save us.

In Gal. 1:4 Paul says that Jesus gave himself according to the will of God to deliver us from this present evil world.  I'll don't understand this relationship how Jesus is God and God is Jesus, but I read that the Bible speaks that there is a separation but it also talks about unity between them.  If I don't fully understand then why should I try to discuss this with others to try and get them to understand.  The main thing we should do as Christians is to love the person and live like God would want us to.  We just need to tell others that a belief in Jesus saves.
