THERE can be no compromise with God’s truths. Hence, to worship God on his terms means to reject the Trinity doctrine. It contradicts what the prophets, Jesus, the apostles, and the early Christians believed and taught. It contradicts what God says about himself in his own inspired Word. Thus, he counsels: “Acknowledge that I alone am God and that there is no one else like me.”—Isaiah 46:9, TEV.

Jesus, both counts, better known in heaven as Michael, which means; Who is like God?

First of all, for Gen. 1: 26. You will hear many theories on this, and no one really knows for sure. I will tell you what I regard to be the most likely explanation for this and other seemingly plural references to God in Genesis, based on study of other ancient near eastern languages. In some of these languages, the use of a plural form takes a noun from the concrete to the abstract, or to the level of the divine.
Wisdom in Proverbs is a female figure, a personification of Wisdom, a being with God who was active in the creation of the world. The female Wisdom of the Old Testament seems to parallel or identify with the Logos of the New Testament.
She Who Is by Elizabeth Johnson is a good book on the Woman Wisdom figure of the Old Testament.

Let US make man in OUR image.
Welcome to Trinity 101
God the father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit were all present then. Who said they didn't have conversations? If they are in perfect agreement, shouldn't they talk to each other?
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. If the reverence of God the beginning of wisdom. and James 1:5 says that if you lack wisdom, you should ask God, what logic remains but that God is wisdom?

Genesis 1:26
26 Then God said, “Let us make man [1] in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”

God wasn't talking in Genesis 1:26, it's just a recounting of events. In the next one it's the voice of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel.

Hi!
God was talking to Himself in Genesis 1:26. The "Us" actually is the first indication that God is the divine Trinity. This just means that He is three yet one, one yet three. God is the Father, the Son, and the Spirit. It's impossible to understand, but can be experienced. I understand God to be God the Father in God the Son as God the Spirit. It's a mouthful, but it makes sense to me.

God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit. The Great Three in One. Proverbs 8'30 says nothing about wisdom. it says "then i was by him, as one brought up with him: and i was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him." Him is God.

I am assuming he is talking about the Trinity when he says, "Let us make..."
Proverbs 8:30: "...then I was beside him, like a master workman,
and I was daily his delight, rejoicing before him always..."
Not sure what you mean by wisdom in that one...I see that God is beside man, and He wants all to obey His Word.

He was talking to Himself. I AM the Father, Word & Holy Spirit.
The wisdom in proverbs is the Word of God. This is a tree of life & favour of Yahweh.

In Genesis the rest of the Trinity. Wisdom is understanding, actual wisdom.

God was talking to Jesus and the Holy Spirit when He said: "Let US make man in OUR image".
Proverbs 8:30 says this ""Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him."
You can't just extract this verse from the chapter, you will find your answer in the passages 32-36.
Hint: The one who died for ALL mankind.
