No there is no such proof because it is not true, but
you have raised some very good questions there, and it's right Jesus is not God He is God's Son. People around the world have heard something about Jesus Christ, even though he lived 2,000 years ago. Yet many are confused about who Jesus really was. Some say that he was merely a good man. Others claim that he was nothing more than a prophet. Still others believe that Jesus is God and should be worshiped. Should he?
It is important to know the truth about Jesus, because the Bible says: This means everlasting life, their taking in knowledge of you , the only true God, and of the one you sent forth, Jesus Christ."(John 17:3) Yes knowing the truth about Jehovah God ,and about Jesus Christ, can lead to everlasting life on paradise earth.(John14:6) Furthermore, Jesus sets the best example of how to live and treat others(John13:34,35) Jesus is Jehovah's most precious Son-and for good reason. He is called the firstborn of all creation(Collossians1:15). There is something else that makes this Son special. He is the only-begotten Son."(Colossians1:16)This means that Jesus is the only one directly created by JehovahGod. Jesus is also the only one whom God used when he created all other things(Colossians1:16) Then too, Jesus is called the Word,"(1John 1:14) This tells us that he spoke for God,no doubt delivering messages and instructions to the Father's other Sons, both spirit abd human.
The first born Son equal to God, as some believe? That is not what the Bible teaches. As noted earlier, the Son was created. Obviously, then,Jesus had a beginning, whereas God has no beginning or end. (Psalm 90:2) The only-begotteen Son nevereven considered trying to be equal to his Father. The Bible clearly teaches that the Father is greater than the Son
Mathew24:36) Jesus observed God's laws(John8:55)The Bible teaches that God is greater than Jesus(John14:28;1Corinthians11:3
The Son Jesus Christ was created(Psalm90:2) Obviously, then, he had a beginning, whereas God has no beginning!

well I can't asnwer with scripture because none has been written correctly yet. God and Jesus are not the same person....Jesus is just some guy God talked to for a bit which caused a big ruckus which wasn't exactly what God wanted but went with it at the time and now it's turned out kind of ok.... Yea, I know it's weird to think of it...but God is God.... he wasn't exactly born..unless you consider arriving at creation a form of being born. Jesus is just a human being that was born on earth that god contacted with for awhile. There is a huge difference. It's like calling a cloud and a person the same thing....they just aren't. And besides, .....God is a much cooler person then Jesus, if you ever get the chance to meet them, hang with God, he'll spring for food every once and awhile. How do you think Jesus got the last supper thing to happen.... ^-^

I will leave this nightmare of a premise for others with far more time to waste on a throughly lost cause-- to explain the trinity to...
But I could not pass this pile of ignorance without noting to you and for you that at the core of it all----GOD IS NOT A PERSON-- HE IS NOT OF ANYTHING HUMAN--HE IS GALACTIC SUPEREMACY--THE CREATOR---there is no human-ness to be found there of any type whatsoever ---not even close Charlie Brown
And--for the record --once again--there is no way you will ever get your finlite human brain around the fullness nor the slightest grain of a beginning when it comes to knowing the mind of God let alone UNDERSTANDING GOD---THAT IS SO FAR BEYOND YOUR CAPABLITY THAT TO CONSIDER IT IS LUDACRUS TO THE MAX----but as with all of you of this lent--you have set yourselves as god and truely believe YOU set the concept margins and have the final say on it all and there is nothing one can ever do to get through THAT madness so to make the attempt is so far to the inane that it doesn't really even deserve a response---fry in your own ignorance

considering there became no indefinite article in Greek (e.g. 'a' cat vs 'the' cat), the interpretation for both words should be a similar. in the Koine Greek 2 diverse words are used. In maximum Bibles those are translated as a similar word - God. notwithstanding that is only a downside of the English language. in the Greek: ton theon = God theos = god that is why some Bibles use the extra precise translation of "...the word became with God and the word became a god".

1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2He was with God in the beginning.
3Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4In him was life, and that life was the light of men. 5The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood[a] it.
6There came a man who was sent from God; his name was John. 7He came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so that through him all men might believe. 8He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light. 9The true light that gives light to every man was coming into the world.[b]
10He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. 11He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. 12Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God— 13children born not of natural descent,[c] nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God.
14The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us.
John 1:1-14 is a verse used to support the Trinity a lot. Also, Jesus makes a reference to being 'of him who sent me", but I'm not sure where it is at. When God creates the world in Genesis, he says "Let us create man in our image". Also, right after Christ refers to himself as the Alpha and Omega, he says "Who was, and is, and is to come", which is similar to the "I Am" reference made by God at the burning bush to Moses. And saying that didn't literally mean he had a beginning and and end, or that he is that, but more along the lines of 'creator and destroyer' or a reference to being all-important, or at least thats how I've always taken that.
As far as praying and stuff, the Son of the Godhead never died, it was his earthly life that did. As much as Jesus was totally man, he was totally God at the same time. He also said that no one has seen God, but seeing him was like seeing God, referencing how he lived and treated people. Most of the Christ-as-God passages are in John, but I don't know them off the top of my head

I will answer this with scripture, but let me explain it the way I do for my children. My example is: Let's say you are able to be your great self, but also you are able to place yourself- your spirit-into an ant's body, to control it, like a robot or something... You are still you, but you also inhabit the ant. The ant is himself moving physically through the world, but powered by your spirit. Both are in agreement....one is larger (leader, father) one is not, but both are essentially the same. As we move through life, we have spirits within our bodies. Who we choose to be in "control" is another story...Okay, now scripturally: See John 14, and also,1 Cointhians 8:6 .....John 10:30 Jesus says " I and the Father are one."

the bigger question is how can a omnipotent eternal creator with no body or ability to reproduce have a divine son?
oh you wanted scripture
Isaiah 44
6. So said the Lord, the King of Israel and his Redeemer the Lord of Hosts, "I am first and I am last, and besides Me there is no God.
yeah, so I guess if Jesus is not directly G-d he cannot be divine in any way either.
oh do you know how else is called the son of G-d.
try the Nation of Israel, King Solomon and Samuel to name a few.

We are all apart of the Creator of all things.this is our souls which were spun off from the creator to keep it company.
Jesus went into hell to obtain the keys that will allow all the sinners to be released whenever the creator desides to stop the wheel of time and call all souls back into its body.
as far as the passion of the christ. he was part mortal and his body did not want to assume the burden of dying and tried to bargin its way out of what the soul knew was coming. until the soul made the body accept its fate.
this question of yours is a mix of old and new testament ideas so it is hard to give a much better answer without meandering all over the place as to who what why and where.

I just wanted to stop and say, "THANK YOU."
Your question with reasoning is nothing BUT the TRUTH!!!
I always wondered, how do someone explain to a child that, the Son of God and God, himself are one person, are equal???
Isn't that saying that you and your child are the same? You and your child are equals? Come on, we all know that the child that you created, IS NOT an equal or same (ability of everything you do!!)
WHY would it be different with the "Almighty God" and his Son, Jesus Christ??
