Three days after Jesus' death he arose from the dead. He was still in Jerusalem but soon told his disciples he would meet them back in their home area in Galilee. Jesus declared that he rose again in order to be "with them always even to the end of the age." His promise is found in Matthew 28:19 where he commands them to make disciples and teach ALL NATIONS.
