It's Saturday. The disciples' leader is dead. The disciples hide in fear and shock - their hopes
and dreams for their Messiah and God's Kingdom shattered like broken glass. 

The Jewish leaders are scared too - with all the supernatural activity involved in Jesus' death, maybe there is some truth to what He said. They meet with Pilate to alleviate their fears and say, “Sir, we remember how that impostor said, while he was still alive, ‘After three days I will rise.’ Therefore, order the tomb to be made secure until the third day, lest His disciples go and steal Him away and tell the people, ‘He has risen from the dead,’ and the last fraud will be worse than the first. Pilate said to them, 'You have a guard of soldiers. Go, make it as secure as you can.'”

Our Savior is in the tomb ... but Sunday is coming!
