12. Then the priests met with the older Jewish leaders and made a plan. They paid the soldiers a lot of money
13. and said to them, “Tell the people that Jesus’ followers came during the night and stole the body while you were sleeping.
14. If the governor hears about this, we will talk to him and keep you out of trouble.”
15. So the soldiers kept the money and obeyed the priests. And that story is still spread among the Jews even today.
16. The eleven followers went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus told them to go.
17. On the mountain the followers saw Jesus. They worshiped him. But some of the followers did not believe that it was really Jesus.
18. So he came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth is given to me.
19. So go and make followers of all people in the world. Baptize them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
20. Teach them to obey everything that I have told you to do. You can be sure that I will be with you always. I will continue with you until the end of time.”
