Evidence from the Bible that there is one God--and, that God is the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit

First, I don’t think mankind can ever comprehend the true scope of God, who created everything, from the innermost parts of our parts, and those of all life and creation itself.  A God who created the greatest unspoken miracles that we cannot even fathom, the creation of a soul, the creation of the ability to love, of emotions, of speech, to have wisdom, and all things we so take for granted.  But, this God of all, has given us His Word, in written form.  

The Bible has had many attacks, wherein many have used their interpretation to rewrite a Bible.  Yet the Word written today has surpassed the passage of time, as ancient relics prove His Word, as written in the Bible, to remain the same as the day they were written.  Is this a task that is too difficult for the Lord?   In this time when false Bibles are written to cover all sins, and to change and pervert the Word of God, we find it is also the time when we have the power to diligently search for the Bible that preserves the scriptures.  Were the Black Sea Scrolls discovered for such a time as this, to substantiate the writings of the Bible as remaining true.. 

There is but one God; and that one God is the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.  The Bible is absolute on this. 

Matthew 28:19  19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:  20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.  (Baptizing in the trinity.)

John 8: ⁵⁸ Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.  (“I Am” is the word that God the Father used to describe himself in the old testament.)

John 10: ³⁰ I and my Father are one.  (Jesus himself confirmed there is one God.)

John 14: ⁹ Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Show us the Father?   (Jesus tells us that He and the Father are one.)

John 14: 16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you forever;  (The Holy Spirit came to us, when Jesus returned to Heaven.)

Galatians 3: ¹⁹ Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator. ²⁰ Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one.  (Jesus is our mediator that stands independent, but is one in God.)

Colossians 1: ¹⁵ Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: ¹⁶ For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:  (Jesus, the first born to be raised from the dead, as the son of man, overcame death; death had no power over Him, and the power of death over the rest of mankind was lifted.  The sentence of death was taken.  Jesus is “son of man” but He also “son of God”, and He is God.   He was there from the beginning and became man to save the world.)

One cannot believe what Jesus says and then call him a liar.  He is either God, or He isn’t. He cannot be only “man” or he would not be able to overcome death.   Nor, can he be a second God, for as God Himself, from the beginning, has said, there is only one God.  Either the Bible is true when Jesus says he is God, or the whole Bible is false.  We cannot pick out true parts and false parts, it will all be corrupt.
