(Matthew 28:19)"Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit," (ESV)
This verse is strong evidence for the Trinity. There is one God in three persons (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit). It is hard to see why you would baptize disciples in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit if all three are not God.
(Matthew 12:31)"Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven people, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven." (ESV)
Blasphemy is speaking wrongly or carelessly about God. Blasphemy can only be committed against God. Therefore the Holy Spirit is God.
(Acts 5:3)"But Peter said, Ananias why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back for yourself part of the proceeds of the land?" (ESV)
In Acts 5:4 Peter then tells Ananias, You have not lied to man but to God." If you have lied to the Holy Spirit you have lied to God. Therefore the Holy Spirit is God.
