Nowhere!
Matthew 24:36 “Concerning that day and hour nobody knows, neither the angels of the heavens nor the Son, but only the Father.
When I've showed this verse to trinitarians to ask them what does that mean if the trinity is true, they have told me that God in heaven (the Father) had let let some of his brain be on earth with Jesus (God the Son) and that part that was on earth was not privy to that part that remained in heaven. I have to say I find this teaching very confusing.
So I've then asked, well ok, if that was the case, and as you believe that the Holy Spirit is also part of the Godhead, why doesn't it say that the Holy Spirit was aware of that information?
The answer I've received every single time - oh, it's a mystery which we can't explain.
Enough said!

Nowhere and those that have quoted scriptures are misunderstanding and/or misapplying the verses.
As one reader answered "Jesus and Holy Spirit come from God" - so his reasoning is they must BE God!!
Of course Jesus came from God.He was created by his heavenly father and sent to earth to do his fathers will.
Holy Spirit is not a person but only God's active force,what God uses to accomplish his purposes.So Holy Spirit also comes from God.
Jehovah is called Almighty God.Meaning only one.There are a couple of scriptures where Jesus says that the father and him are one but that is one in purpose because Jesus goes on to say the same of his followers that they also may be one.
It takes careful examination of the scriptures and study with someone who has a accurate knowledge is a big bonus.
Jehovahs Witnesses have a accurate and thorough understanding of the Holy Scriptures and offer free home bible studies to any honest hearted ones wanting to learn the truth of God's Word.

1 Luke 1: 35 The angel answered, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God.
1 Luke 3:21 When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized too. And as he was praying, heaven was opened
22 and the Holy Spirit descended on him in bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from heaven: "You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased."
1 Matthew 12: 32 Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but anyone who speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come.
Many references connecting the Holy Spirit to God
I could keep going...

"Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit" Matthew 28:19
note that Jesus said, in the "name" and not "names", hence, God is "Father, son, and Holy Spirit"
"The helper whom I will send to you FROM the Father will come. This helper, the Spirit of Truth who comes from the Father, will declare the truth about me." John 15:26
"I can do nothing on My own initiative. As I hear, I judge; and My judgment is just, because I do not seek My own will, but the will of Him who SENT Me." John 5:30
Jesus and the holy spirit come from GOd the father

patrone07...covered it pretty well.The entire Bible does demonstrate this in many ways. Genisis refers to God as saying Let us create man in our image, It shows that first God did create the flesh and the he breathed in a spirit and they became a living soul. This is being made in the image of God above the animals who perish with their flesh.

Here's just one passage:
7So, as the Holy Spirit says:
"Today, if you hear his voice,
8do not harden your hearts
as you did in the rebellion,
during the time of testing in the desert,
9where your fathers tested and tried me
and for forty years saw what I did.
10That is why I was angry with that generation,
and I said, 'Their hearts are always going astray,
and they have not known my ways.'
(Hebrews 3:7-10)
The passage says "The Holy Spirit says"
then in the passage it says "Me", referring to God.

It appears that the Christian God (of no name) also has Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID).
