Question: why Jesus Christ is known as the son of God but not Lord God, when Jesus Christ is said to be the manifestation of God in human form.

Answer:
** Sister, you raised a very valuable question.
Hope my answer clarifies you.

The name Jesus is given to the human born baby.

-        He is Immanuel (Hebrew) [Meaning – “God with us”, In English]
-        He is Christ (Greek) – Acts 2:36
-        He is Saviour (English)
-        He is Messiah (Hebrew)

He is Lord (English) for everyone. Lord means – holding authority
Since God, the Father has given Him full authority in the world & Heaven, He is raised as LORD (Phil 2:11)

He is God (Rom 9:5) who came down in human form.

Question:
And when Jesus and Father is one, why he always refers Father and not claim himself he is God but says Son of God. 

Answer:
Father, Son & Holy Spirit are ONE.
They are in the form of three characters.



 
(I’m pasting from an external article)
God is One, yet composed of three persons:
The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. All three persons are referred to as God in the Scriptures because each one is God by nature or the divine essence (John 6:27; Colossians 2:8-9; Acts 5:3-4).

God would not be God to exclude any one of the three persons that make up the divine nature. For example, Jesus, even while on earth, was God in the flesh or the “I AM” (John 8:24, 58).

Yet, Jesus always was accompanied by both the Father and the Holy Spirit (e.g., John 10:37-38; Luke 4:1).

Equality Among All Three Persons
Jesus, the Son of God and the Holy Spirit are just as much God as the Father is! “I and my Father are one” (John 10:30). Jesus “thought it not robbery to be equal with God” (Philippians 2:6). The equality of the Father and Son is seen in the salutations of most New Testament epistles (e.g., Romans 1:7; Galatians 1:3; II John 3). Each person of the triune God is emphasized equally in prayer in II Corinthians 13:14.

Equal, Yet of Different Rank by the Divine Order
Jesus submitted to the Father’s will and obeyed His commands (John 4:34; 5:30; 6:38; 8:29; 14:31).
How then could they be equal? Both are equally God, yet according to the divine order, each has a different rank or position in the hierarchy of God (See I Corinthians 11:3).

Just as man and woman are equal (Galatians 3:28), so are the Father and the Son (John 10:30).
The different rank a woman has does not make her any less of a Christian (or human for that matter).

Neither does the different rank of Christ make Him any less Deity. The different rank that each person holds simply means that there are different roles and responsibilities that each one fulfills (e.g., Ephesians 5:22-33; Philippians 2:8).

All three persons (the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) represent Deity, though each person of the Godhead is distinguishable from the other.

Each person of God is distinct in the sense that each one has a different role that each one fulfills (e.g., Hebrews 12:9; Ephesians 5:23; John 16:13). 


I'am not sure,whether i had answered your query. However, in case of any doubt unclear, please do let me know.
