For all the events recorded in the Scriptures there is no indication that some were performed by a Trinitarian version of "God the Father" in contrast to some being performed by other separate parts of God or the full Trinity.

Is Jesus God in John 1.18?

The arguments are about evenly divided for either variant. But the following point is decisive: if John 1.1c, 5.18, 10.30-38, and 20.28 are interpreted as not calling Jesus theos ("God"), then John 1.18 cannot be linked to any corresponding text in this gospel. And linkage is the prologue's purpose. Since ho monogenes huios clearly links to John 3.16 and v. 18, the authentic Greek text of John 1.18 most likely is not monogenes theos but ho monogenes huios, so that it does not call Jesus "God."
