First things first...

We had ice breaker!!!

Next was the makan session~

Fur Jonathan Kuek was our speaker for the day~


It is the Alpha way that we all scribble our answers on a sheet of mahjong paper..
And through this we got to know that different people produce different "results"


Some looked simple and sweet...



Some....
dot dot dot...
haha..

We all gave our opinions on what sin is..


And to why Jesus died on the cross...
All the pain.. All the humiliation.. And ultimately God had to turn away from Him...
He did it.. All for us..
That we might be saved, redeemed and cleansed of our sins..
He loved us this much, that He laid down His life so that we may live.
So dear friends.. Let's not forget what Christ has done on the cross for us.. Salvation is free.. But it is not without a price.. Therefore Easter is a good time for us to remember what Christ has done.. And also the great commission which He left us with.. hehe..

Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."

Matthew 28: 18- 20

It was an hour ago that Youth Alpha ended. And more notably, Youth Alpha was done in darkness, in support of Earth Hour. The session touched on who Jesus really is and what evidence is there to support his claim that he is God?

We first discussed whether Jesus was a mad man, a bad man or a God man? Was he crazy for making such absurd claims that eventually led him to his death, was he a con man who lied to the whole world or was He really who He claimed to be - God?

To Christians, Jesus was without a doubt a God man. But the question remains, what proof or evidence are there to support that 'fact'? Rachel, the facilitator for tonight's session mentioned 3 points:

1) His teachings are the foundation of today's western civilization.
2) By dying on the cross, Jesus fulfilled 29 prophesies where the event was mentioned.
3) He rose from the dead.

However, how can anyone be sure that Jesus really did resurrect? Over the years, people have developed many theories and 3 of them were tabled this evening.

Conspiracy Theory 1 - Jesus didn't really die
Some argued that Jesus merely passed out from the pain and exhaustion of the crucifixion. It is believed that he was taken off the cross afterwards and laid down in a tomb where he speedily recovered and left as soon as he was able to do so.

Weakness of this theory: If Jesus were to only pass out and left the tomb when he recovered consciousness would be quite an impossible claim because he was horrendously tortured by the Roman soldiers a day before crucifixion that he could barely stand on his wounded pair of legs. So how could he have gained consciousness, rolled away the heavy stone at the tomb entrance and fought off the Roman guards?

Conspiracy Theory 2 - The disciples stole the body
Others believed when his disciples found out he was placed in a tomb, they staged a mission to steal his body in the middle of the night. They crept up and overpowered the sleeping Roman guards and rolled away the stone that was blocking the tomb entrance. The disciples then started rumors that Jesus had risen from the dead in order to make themselves seem more important. Throughout the rest of their lives, they kept to themselves what happened that night.

Weakness of this theory: The disciples were already in shock and confusion after loosing their teacher, their leader. They would not have mustered the courage to steal Jesus' body, and defeat the Roman guards who were far more superior in brawn. Aside from that point, all disciples somehow suffered severely and some died for Jesus' cause; that he has risen from the dead. If Jesus did not really resurrect, wouldn't at least one disciple blurt out that they stole the body and Jesus did not rose from the dead to save his own life?

Conspiracy Theory 3 - The authorities removed Jesus' body
Another conspiracy was that the Jewish and Roman authorities stole Jesus' body to avoid the tomb becoming a kind of shrine or holy place crowded with Jesus' followers. So they simply took the body and buried it somewhere else.

Weakness of this theory: If the authorities stole the body, wouldn't they also parade Jesus' body to the whole world to prove their point, that Jesus actually died instead of being resurrected?

Towards the end of the evening, Pastor Noah took stage to close the session, asking (especially the Christians) if we really believe in what we believe in? "Because, mark my words, your faith will be challenged one day," he said. He ended with a question, "What kind of life do you want to live?"; a life that fulfills our ambitions or a life that fulfills God's will?

The day was 18th of January..
