The Lord God the Creator is Chrestos [χρηστος ]according to the Greek OT.
The Greek OT was written before the fables called Gospels.

Greek OT Psalms
105:1 αλληλουια εξομολογεισθε τω κυριω οτι χρηστος οτι εις τον αιωνα το ελεος αυτου
Psalms 105.1
Praise ye the Lord. O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.
Sometime in the 2nd century Christians invented a character called Jesus Christ who was their LORD GOD and Creator.
John 1 1
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made..
The Christians hijacked the Greek OT and made their Jesus equal to the Lord God Creator--the Good One [ Chrestos] [χρηστος ].
