Matthew 28: 11 -15
The soldiers who were on duty guarding the tomb were in a dilemma when the angels rolled back the large stone and Jesus' body was gone. The priests and elders conspire to cover up the resurrection. 

These scriptures made me think of the resurrection and how the soldiers must have felt when the body was gone and they knew the stone had not been moved.  There must be a lot of confusion and since no one could logically explain it the priests and elder felt that trying to cover it up was the right thing to do.  I wonder if I lived at that time would I come closer to Christ?  This is a difficult question because in those days the people have to have faith because otherwise there is no other way to explain the disappearance of the Savior.  I'm glad to live in this day where it is easier to have faith by living the gospel every day and having a living prophet to guide us.
