I got this from the following, it is 3 parts, (posts)

John 5:17-18 Jesus said to them, My Father is always at his work to this very day, and I, too, am working. For this reason the Jews tried all the harder to kill him; not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God.
John 10:30-33 I and the Father are one. Again the Jews picked up stones to stone him, but Jesus said to them, I have shown you many great miracles from the Father. For which of these do you stone me? We are not stoning you for any of these, replied the Jews, but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, claim to be God.
Philippians 2:5-6 Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus: who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped.
Jesus did not hesitate to claim equality with God the Father. The Greek word for equal in John 5:18 is
isos, as in an isosceles, or equal-sided, triangle. Jesus was and is
in very nature God, and therefore was not blaspheming by claiming to be God. The disbelieving Jews had correctly heard Jesus to be making this claim to
full deity, even though they rejected His claim.

Isaiah 42:8 I am the LORD; that is my name! I will not give my glory to another...
Isaiah 48:11c I will not yield my glory to another.
John 17:5 [Jesus prayed] And now, Father, glorify me in your presence with the glory I had with you before the world began.
In Isaiah, God says that He will not give away His glory to another. Yet Jesus, in John 17, is expecting to receive again the
divine glory He shared with the Father before the world began. If Jesus were not deity, this would be a contradiction.

Micah 5:2, King James Version But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.
Vs. 2b, New American Standard Bible His goings forth are from long ago, from the days of eternity.
Jesus, whose earthly birth is prophesied here, is said to be from of old, from everlasting, or from the days of eternity. He is not a created being. Rather, He has
existed from all eternity.

Revelation 1:8, 17-18 I am the Alpha and the Omega, says the Lord God, who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty. ... [17] When I saw him, I fell at his feet as though dead. Then he placed his right hand on me and said: Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last. I am the Living One; I was dead, and behold I am alive for ever and ever! And I hold the keys of death and Hades.
Revelation 22:12-13, 16 Behold, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to everyone according to what he has done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.... [16] I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star."
Note the glorious titles of the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last, the Almighty, the Lord God, who is, and who was, and who is to come. Read all these
titles of Deity, and note that every one in the context can be
applied specifically to Jesus. This book is the revelation of
Jesus the Divine Son!

Isaiah 7:14 Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel.
Matthew 1:23 The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuelwhich means, God with us.
Isaiah gave us this glorious prophecy of Jesus virgin birth. Matthew amplifies the prophecy by identifying this promised Son as Immanuel which means
God with us.
Jesus is GOD with us! A son, yes. But also
God!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Isaiah 9:6 For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Jesus, the prophesied son, will be
called...Mighty God.

John 20:27-28 Then he said to Thomas, Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe. Thomas said to him, My Lord and my God!
The apostle Thomas correctly addressed
Jesus as My Lord and
my God.

Psalms 45:6 Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever; a scepter of justice will be the scepter of your kingdom.
Hebrews 1:8 But about the Son he says, Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever, and righteousness will be the scepter of your kingdom.
Your throne, O God The Old Testament Hebrew word used here is Elohim, used for God well over a thousand times in the Bible. This exact scripture from the Psalm is quoted in Hebrews and is
applied to Jesus the Son.
Jesus is God! Not just a god, as some would have us believe. The New Testament Greek word for God that is specifically applied to Jesus in Hebrews 1:8 is Theos, used for God over 1,300 times in the New Testament.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
John 1:1, 14 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.... [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.
Jesus is called the Word, the Logos, of God. As the Logos, He is the manifestation or expression of God to us, the image of the invisible God (Colossians 1:15). The Son is the radiance of Gods glory and the exact representation of His being (Hebrews 1:3). He came from the Father. As the Logos,
Jesus the Word was with God, and the Word
was God.

Exodus 34:14 Do not worship any other god, for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.
Matthew 4:10 Jesus said to him, Away from me, Satan! For it is written: Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.
Hebrews 1:6 And again, when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says, Let all Gods angels worship him.
In Exodus God commands that He alone be worshiped. Jesus reiterated the commandment to
worship God only. Yet God the Fathers command in Hebrews 1:6 that His angels
worship the Son indicates that the
Son too is God. If Jesus were not Deity, this would be idolatry.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 Timothy 3:16, King James Version And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
GOD was manifest in the flesh, clearly in context referring to
Jesus.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
Hebrews 3:4 For every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything.
Colossians 1:15-16 He [Jesus] is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him.
John 1:1-3, 10 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.... [10] He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him.
The Bible speaks of both God the Father and Jesus being Creator of all.
Jesus is divine, the Co-Creator!
