The Scriptures do not use the term “God from God” and if we analyze the phrase it cannot be reconciled to the Scriptures. so I can't believe it.

That's not correct -- John 10:30 I and my Father are one and "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God." -John 1:1

And "This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all." John 1:5 4In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

and 9That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.

but thank you for sharing your opinion on this.

You underlined, “...the Word was God”. So the Word was God the Father? or God the Son? or God the Holy Ghost? or all three?

It would be useful if I understood who you understand the term “God” in the three cases in John 1:1,2 is speaking about. “God from God” isn't found there.
