To further illustrate -- I asked you about John 17:5 (at that time it was for the purpose of trying to establish that Jesus was not the Father because Jesus spoke to the Father.) However, let's use it again.
"Now, Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world was."
Read that again. Jesus said that He shared glory with the Father before the world was. That means that Jesus and the Father both existed together before the world was created. That places both Jesus and the Father at Genesis 1.
We have two Persons who are both eternal, and who shared in the same glory. Since we have already established that God was alone in the first 26 verses of Genesis, this strongly suggests that we have at least two Persons who are both the one true God. They are the same God and the same Being, but they are not each other.
You get the same thing when you read John 1:1-3.
