The Bible introduces the triune Godhead in Genesis 1:1-2: "In the beginning God created... And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters." The Holy Spirit moved with creative power on behalf of the Godhead, and this creative role carried through the formation of the earth and everything in it.
Genesis 1:3 says, "God says, 'Let there be light; and there was light." Psalm 33:6 tells us, "By the word of the Lord the heavens were made, and all the host of them by the breath (Spirit) of His mouth." God's creative power was channeled through His word and His Spirit, which executed His pronouncement.
God is one, and yet He is more than one; He is simultaneously plural and singular. This truth is immediately introduced to us by the first 3 words of the Bible and runs throughout the Scriptures, shedding light on God's triune identity. There are lots of other passages throughout the Bible ascribing to the Holy Trinity. I'm sure you know where they are. With many decades of theological debates behind you, you surely don't need me to spoon-feed you, do
