Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to
the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. When they saw him,
they worshiped him; but some doubted. 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 28:16-20
