18 And Jesus came and said to them, ^k“All ^lauthority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Go therefore and ^mmake disciples of ⁿall nations, baptizing them in¹ the ^oname of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am ^pwith you always, to the end of the age.”

8 But you will receive ^mpower when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my ⁿwitnesses in ^oJerusalem and in all ^pJudea and ^qSamaria, and to the ^rend of the earth.”

20 Therefore, we are ^rambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.
