Excellent question!! Read the beginning of John. In this first chapter, John is referring to Jesus as the Word. The difference is purely speculative, but believers have tried to make sense of it through the doctrine of the Trinity. I'm sure this is not exactly how God exists, but it is the best way for us to understand it.

John 10: 30-33
"I and the Father are one." 31The Jews took up stones again to stone Him. 32Jesus answered them, "I showed you many good works from the Father; for which of them are you stoning Me?" 33The Jews answered Him, "For a good work we do not stone You, but for blasphemy; and because You, being a man, make Yourself out to be God."
John 8:58 - "Jesus said to them, 'Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was born, I am.'"
John 5:18 - "For this cause therefore the Jews were seeking all the more to kill Him, because He not only was breaking the Sabbath, but also was calling God His own Father, making Himself equal with God."
The beginning of the book of John is the best place to look. It does say in the bible that the Jesus is God. I only listed some, the ones I found were the easiest to understand.

In the day that the Testaments of the Bible were recorded being the son of the master of the house gave you full authority to act as the master. In the mind of the people the son of the master answered to no one but his father in matters of the household. To say that Jesus is the Son of God was saying that He is indeed God. Jesus even used the name of God in reference to Himself. In speaking to the Pharisees about His origin after being accused of being born outside wedlock while they were sons of Abraham, Jesus said "Before Abrahan was I AM". The Pharisees know that this was a claim of divinity because the picked up stones to stone Him with. I am sure that if they can see His claim of divinity so can you.. Jim
John 8:58
Jesus said unto them, Verily,verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I AM.

40+ times in John's Gospel and several elsewhere.
The instances in John are probably on most every page in the book (though many are not obvious to English readers because the inference is couched in the meanings of the Hebrew and Greek original words - "I AM," which figures prominently in the teachings recorded in John, is related to the Old Testament Hebrew "name" of God, so by EMPHATICALLY applying this to HIMSELF, Jesus challenged the preconceptions of the Jews about Messiah), so here are a few of the others:
Tit 2:13 That’s how we should live as we wait for the blessed hope God has given us. We are waiting for Jesus Christ to appear in all his glory. He is our great God and Savior.
2Pe 1:1 I, Simon Peter, am writing this letter. I serve Jesus Christ. I am his apostle. I am sending this letter to you who have received a faith as valuable as ours. You received it because our God and Savior Jesus Christ does what is right and fair for everyone.

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning.
Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it."
John 1:1-5
"You are not yet fifty years old," the Jews said to him, "and you have seen Abraham!"
"I tell you the truth," Jesus answered, "before Abraham was born, I am!"
John 8:57,58
"Put your trust in the light while you have it, so that you may become sons of light." When he had finished speaking, Jesus left and hid himself from them.
Even after Jesus had done all these miraculous signs in their presence, they still would not believe in him. This was to fulfill the word of Isaiah the prophet:
"Lord, who has believed our message
and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?"
For this reason they could not believe, because, as Isaiah says elsewhere:
"He has blinded their eyes
and deadened their hearts,
so they can neither see with their eyes,
nor understand with their hearts,
nor turn—and I would heal them."Isaiah said this because he saw Jesus' glory and spoke about him." John 12:36-41
Here's what John meant when he speaks of Isaiah beholding His glory and speaking of Him:
" In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord seated on a throne, high and exalted, and the train of his robe filled the temple. Above him were seraphs, each with six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying. And they were calling to one another:
"Holy, holy, holy is the LORD Almighty;
the whole earth is full of his glory."
At the sound of their voices the doorposts and thresholds shook and the temple was filled with smoke.
"Woe to me!" I cried. "I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the LORD Almighty."
Then one of the seraphs flew to me with a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with tongs from the altar. With it he touched my mouth and said, "See, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away and your sin atoned for."
Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, "Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?"
And I said, "Here am I. Send me!"
He said, "Go and tell this people:
" 'Be ever hearing, but never understanding;
be ever seeing, but never perceiving.'
Make the heart of this people calloused;
make their ears dull
and close their eyes.
Otherwise they might see with their eyes,
hear with their ears,
understand with their hearts,
and turn and be healed."
Isaiah 6:1-10
According to John, this glorious Being whom Isaiah beheld is none other that the pre-incarnate Son of God, the Lord Jesus Christ.

regarding this verse written by Razzel:
John 10: 30-33
"I and the Father are one." 31The Jews took up stones again to stone Him. 32Jesus answered them, "I showed you many good works from the Father; for which of them are you stoning Me?" 33The Jews answered Him, "For a good work we do not stone You, but for blasphemy; and because You, being a man, make Yourself out to be God."
the Jews accuesed him of this just to find excues to kill him, but Jesus did not say he was God. they just want to find excues to kill him.
continue the verses please:
33 The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?
Ps 82:6
35 If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;
36 Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?
37 If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.
JOHN 10 33 -37

Well, ask if God would exist in the same way without Jesus.
