Here is just one of the many examples.

John 10:25-33.

25 Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father’s name, they bear witness to me;
26 but you do not believe, because you do not belong to my sheep.
27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me;
28 and I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish, and no one shall snatch them out of my hand.
29 My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father’s hand.
30 I and the Father are one.”
31 The Jews took up stones again to stone him.
32 Jesus answered them, “I have shown you many good works from the Father; for which of these do you stone me?”
33 The Jews answered him, “It is not for a good work that we stone you but for blasphemy; because you, being a man, make yourself God.”

Here is another:

John 14:6-12

6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but by me.
7 If you had known me, you would have known my Father also; henceforth you know him and have seen him.”
8 Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, and we shall be satisfied.”
9 Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you so long, and yet you do not know me, Philip? He who has seen me has seen the Father; how can you say, `Show us the Father’?
10 **Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own **authority; but the Father who dwells in me does his works.
11 Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father in me; or else believe me for the sake of the works themselves.
12 "Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I go to the Father.

The Gospel according to John, Chapter 1, verse 1:

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

(My emphasis.)

We should remember that this was written in Greek (a version called the Koine.) The Greeks, who invented logical discourse, considered speaking and reasoning to be the same thing. For example, when Paul says, “Come, let us reason together,” that pericope could also be translated as “Come, let us **speak **together.” The basic word, logos, can be used for either speaking or action of the intellect.

So John 1,1 can also be translated as:

1 In the beginning was the Intellect, and the Intellect was with God, and the Intellect was God.

Thanks for all of the help!!!

I actually did look for the passages, but I was not successful.

THANKS–It was John 10 : 30 that I wanted.

All of them are helpful, thanks!!!

Related to this topic; If Jesus is part of the Trinity, why didn’t He say “The Father, the Holy Spirit, and I are one.”

Look for Bowman’s biblical outline trinity online
