Trinity proof texts: John 8:58 ... And if any should from these words be afraid of our going over to the side of those who deny that the Father and the Son are two persons, let him weigh that passage, "And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul," that he may understand the meaning of the saying, "I and My Father are one." We worship one God, the Father and the Son, therefore, as we have explained; and our argument against the worship of other gods still continues valid. And we do not "reverence beyond measure one who has but lately ... For this I have been born". If mere pre-existence was all that Jesus wanted to convey, He would have used a sentence structure like John already recorded: "He who comes after me has a higher rank than I, for He existed before me." John 1:15,30 The power of John 1:15 is that Jesus was 6 months younger than John the Baptist, yet He is said to exist before John.

Trinity proof texts: John 5:18 ... God's LAW of respect for HUMAN LIFE came in direct conflict with the SABBATH LAW and the sabbath law gave away to the higher law of MERCY. This is very similar to Mt 4:4 "living by every word of God" "the sum of they word" and Jesus argued, "on the other hand Satan it is written" When two laws come into conflict, one must give way. That is what we see here. The priests breaking the Sabbath in temple work without sin. ... This is quite remarkable, since we would have expected Jesus to say, "My work does not break the sabbath" or "I am not working."

It was well understood by the Jews, that God is not idle on the Sabbath, but upholds the worlds by His mighty power continuously.
