28Now after the Sabbath, toward the dawn of the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the tomb.G1161G3796G4521G2020G1519G3391G4521G2064G3137G3094G2532G243G3137G2334G50282And behold, there was a great earthquake, for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled back the stone and sat on it.G2532G2400G1096G3173G4578G1063G32G2962G2597G1537G3772G4334G617G3037G575G2374G2532G2521G1883G8463His appearance was like lightning, and his clothing white as snow.G1161G846G2397G2258G5613G796G2532G846G1742G3022G5616G55104And for fear of him the guards trembled and became like dead men.G1161G575G5401G846G5083G4579G2532G1096G5616G34985But the angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified.G1161G32G611G2036G1135G5399G3361G5210G1063G1492G3754G2212G2424G3588G47176He is not here, for he has risen, as he said. Come, see the place where he lay.G2076G3756G5602G1063G1453G2531G2036G1205G1492G5117G3699G2962G27497Then go quickly and tell his disciples that he has risen from the dead, and behold, he is going before you to Galilee; there you will see him. See, I have told you."G2532G4198G5035G2036G846G3101G3754G1453G575G3498G2532G2400G4254G5209G1519G1056G1563G3700G846G2400G2036G52138So they departed quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, and ran to tell his disciples.G2532G1831G5035G575G3419G3326G5401G2532G3173G5479G5143G518G846G3101G5189And behold, Jesus met them and said, "Greetings!" And they came up and took hold of his feet and worshiped him.G1161G5613G4198G518G846G3101G2532G2400G2424G528G846G3004G5463G1161G4334G2902G846G4228G2532G4352G84610Then Jesus said to them, "Do not be afraid; go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee, and there they will see me."G5119G3004G2424G846G5399G3361G5399G565G518G3450G80G2443G5217G1519G1056G2546G3700G3165
The Report of the Guard
11While they were going, behold, some of the guard went into the city and told the chief priests all that had taken place.G1161G846G4198G2400G5100G2892G2064G1519G4172G518G749G537G109612And when they had assembled with the elders and taken counsel, they gave a sufficient sum of money to the soldiersG2532G4863G3326G4245G5037G2983G4824G1325G2425G694G475713and said, "Tell people, 'His disciples came by night and stole him away while we were asleep.'G3004G2036G3754G846G3101G2064G3571G2813G846G2257G283714And if this comes to the governor's ears, we will satisfy him and keep you out of trouble."G2532G1437G5124G191G1909G2232G191G2249G3982G846G2532G275G4160G520915So they took the money and did as they were directed. And this story has been spread among the Jews to this day.G1161G2983G694G4160G5613G1321G2532G3778G3056G1310G3844G2453G3360G4594
The Great Commission
16Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had directed them.G1161G1733G3101G4198G1519G1056G1519G3735G3757G2424G5021G84617And when they saw him they worshiped him, but some doubted.G2532G1492G846G4352G846G1161G136518And Jesus came and said to them, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.G2532G2424G4334G2980G846G3004G3956G1849G1325G3427G1722G3772G2532G1909G109319Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,G4198G3767G3100G3956G1484G907G846G1519G3686G3962G2532G5207G2532G40G415120teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age."G1321G846G5083G3956G3745G1781G5213G2532G2400G1473G1510G3326G5216G3956G2250G2193G4930G165G281
Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
