Jesus claiming to be God:

My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no-one can snatch them out of my Father’s hand. I and the Father are one.’

John 10:29‭-‬30

‘Very truly I tell you,’ Jesus answered, ‘before Abraham was born, I am!’ (Exodus 3:14)

John 8:58

Jesus accepts worship:

Thomas said to him, ‘My Lord and my God!’ Then Jesus told him, ‘Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.’

John 20:28‭-‬29

Then those who were in the boat worshipped him, saying, ‘Truly you are the Son of God.’

Matthew 14:33

Suddenly Jesus met them. ‘Greetings,’ he said. They came to him, clasped his feet and worshipped him. Then Jesus said to them, ‘Do not be afraid. Go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee; there they will see me.’

Matthew 28:9‭-10

St Paul:

while we wait for the blessed hope – the appearing of the glory of our great God and Saviour, Jesus Christ,

Titus 2:13

You notice how not a single one of these passages just says what you want it to say? Each one of them there is wiggle room. And each one of them only comes to us after the Trinity was an accepted idea and centuries of monks "corrected it".

Any evidence that these manuscripts were tampered with after the Council of Nicea? (I assume that's what you're referring to as "Trinity" as an accepted idea, although the idea was accepted likely before these scriptures were even originally written)
