The Amateur | Jesus in the Text

Welcome to The Amateur.

This channel explores one central question:

Did Jesus really claim to be God?

Not through opinions, trends, or traditions —
but by going directly to the text.

We examine the Bible using a Scripture-first approach, connecting the Old and New Testaments to uncover patterns that have been there all along.

You’ll find:

Clear, text-based explanations of who Jesus is

Short, powerful breakdowns of key Bible passages

Responses to common objections and misunderstandings

“Scripture drills” to help you know and remember the text

Occasional deep dives into historical and cultural context

This isn’t about winning arguments.
It’s about seeing what’s actually there.

If you’re asking:

Did Jesus claim to be God?

Why did people accuse Him of blasphemy?

What did the earliest believers actually believe?

…then you’re in the right place.

Truth should shape the tribe.

When the tribe shapes the truth, that’s idolatry.

I’ve started a 30-day journey through Scripture called
“The Trinity Through the Bible.”

Each day looks at a single passage — from Genesis to Revelation — showing how God reveals His unity and complexity over time, using Scripture itself rather than later theology.

If you’ve ever wondered:
– where the Trinity actually comes from in the Bible
– whether it’s rooted in the Old Testament
– or how Jews and early Christians understood God’s nature

then this series is for you.

The Prologue and Day 1 are live, and a new episode is releasing daily.

Tonight we’re talking about real persecution at 6pm
…and what repentance actually means at 8pm.
Two very different topics — both worth your time.

Somewhere along the way, we stopped building a culture of aspiration —
and started rewarding the race to the bottom.

“Chav” wasn’t just a label. It was a mirror — showing what happens when we mock ambition and glorify chaos.

Then tell me… are we still doing the same thing today? 👇🏾

Do you think the word “chav” was ever about class — or just control?
