Default Romans 5 Lord Jesus Christ One

These words struck me looking at the post by GakuseiDon.

Paul writes Christ most of the time, once Lord Jesus Christ.

Is that an insertion?

Did Paul have a vision of a messiah, and he was later told, oh that was the Lord Jesus Christ?

Is Lord the same word as in the OT? Is Yahweh Joshua Messiah a legitimate translation?

What thought has been given about the use of "One". Has anyone said oh that's a maths religion - all this stuff about the one and the many?

The word for Lord here is KURIOS which in ordinary Greek can be used of any leader ruler or authority figure.

However in the Septuagint it is frequently used to translate Yahweh.

Who has looked at the use of the terms "Lord" "Jesus" and "Christ" and asked what was this amalgam of terms meant to convey?

German uses compound words a lot, what is the first recorded use of this term? Why is there switching of names going on? Why the different variations - Lord Jesus, Jesus Christ, Jesus, Christ, Lord Jesus Christ? Isn't there even agreement on the guy's name?

When did "one" start being used?

Is Lord Jesus meant to be understood as Yahweh with us?
