Ge 1:26 Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”
Notice God is talking to Himself in the beginning and that He is plural.
Ps 110:1 The LORD says to my Lord:
“Sit at my right hand
until I make your enemies
a footstool for your feet.”
This is from David whom Chist came from.
JN 8:54 Jesus answered, “ If I glorify Myself, My glory is nothing; it is My Father who glorifies Me, of whom you say, ‘He is our God’;
JN 8:55 and you have not come to know Him, but I know Him; and if I say that I do not know Him, I will be a liar like you, but I do know Him and keep His word.
JN 8:56 “ Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad.”
JN 8:57 So the Jews said to Him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and have You seen Abraham?”
JN 8:58 Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was born, I am.”
JN 8:59 Therefore they picked up stones to throw at Him, but Jesus hid Himself and went out of the temple.
Jesus called God his father here making him the Son of God. He also said that he was before Abraham and called himself I am. Jesus is calling himself God by giving himself the title "I am" and saying he existed before he was born.
Ex 3:14 God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’ ”
Just showing this title is given to God
Jn 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Jn 1:14 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.
You should read all the verses inbetween and afterwords, but these verses show the Word (who is Jesus by the context of the word becoming flesh and also verses surrounding these) was in the beginning and was God and came from the Father.
Lk 22:70 They all asked, “Are you then the Son of God?”
He (Jesus) replied, “You are right in saying I am.”
Jn 20:28 Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!”
Jn 20:29 Then Jesus told him, “Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”
Jn 14:6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
Jn 14:7 If you really knew me, you would know MY FATHER as well. From now on, you do know him and HAVE SEEN HIM.”
Jn 14:8 Philip said, “Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us.”
Jn 14:9 Jesus answered: “Don’t you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? ANYONE WHO HAS SEEN ME HAS SEEN THE FATHER. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?
Jn 14:10 Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you are not just my own. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work.
Jn 14:11 Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the miracles themselves.
These verses should answer your question for yourself even though there are more than these. The verses above can be found in most Bibles (NASB, NKJV, KJV, NIV, etc.).
By the way,
Mt 1:21 She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.”
If He is God, everyone is His people.
He came to save anyone in the WORLD from the SECOND DEATH. Read below for the verses.
Jn 3:16 “For God so loved the WORLD that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Jn 3:17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.
Jn 3:18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.
Jn 3:19 This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil.
Jn 3:20 Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed.
Jn 3:21 But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God.”
Rev 21:8 But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the SECOND DEATH.”
