Odin is a god, but so is Loki, Thor, Freja, Frigg...every of the Asen is a god. That's why the Norse religion is a polytheistic religion, including many god in their believes that have strengths but also weaknesses. Christianity is monotheistic, believing only in one god, that replaced the northern gods. It's because of Christianity that Norse religion faded away.
