It was the dramatic transformation in the disciples’ behavior that convinced Morison the resurrection really happened. Anderson, author of Evidence for the Resurrection, reasons, “Think of the psychological absurdity of picturing a little band of defeated cowards cowering in an upper room one day and a few days later transformed into a company that no persecution could silence – and then attempting to attribute this dramatic change to nothing more convincing than a miserable fabrication … That simply wouldn’t make sense.” The disciples changed from being cowards into men who were willing to be tortured and martyred for proclaiming the risen Jesus.Tom Anderson, former president of the California Trial Lawyers Association, explains, “With an event so well publicized, don’t you think that it’s reasonable that one historian, one eye witness, one antagonist would record for all time that he had seen Christ’s body? … The silence of history is deafening when it comes to the testimony against the resurrection.” A resurrection plot would have died out as soon as someone discovered Jesus’ body, yet that never happened.It would have been impossible for the disciples to roll the stone away and remove Jesus’ body without notice. The tomb was secured by a large stone and a 24-hour trained Roman guard.

However, there are three main problems with that theory: Morison then wondered if the disciples had conspired a plot to make it appear Jesus had risen. Morison discovered Jesus’ death was verified by both Jewish and Roman historians. What was it that changed Morison’s mind as well as his book? However, as he examined the evidence, Morison’s views changed as well as the theme of his book. One person who wanted to know what happened was English journalist and skeptic, Frank Morison who began research for a book to prove that Jesus’ resurrection was a myth.
