Where In The KJV Does It Say "Go and Make Disciples"?

I do not find that scripture in the KJV. Why do all the other translations say "disciples" - Jesus said we are to teach all nations - that concept is different. :D

Update:

ok - I'm not making myself clear. I want to know specifically if there is a scripture that says in the KJV "Go and Make Disciples" I know what the others say.

Jesus said "Go and Teach All Nations"??? - Thank you :D

    The KJV is accurate in it s translation of Matt 28:19 - "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations"

    The newer per-versions of Scripture have changed the meaning to "Go and make Disciples"

    This change occurred in the 1800 s with Greek revision by Westcott-Hort & Nestle Aland texts.

    Textus Receptus Greek agrees with Wycliffe(1395), Tyndale(1534), Coverdale(1535), Bishops (1568)

    Geneva(1599) and King James Version (1611) - Read Revelation 22:19 KWA

    Matthew 28:19 says "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."

    When you teach anyone about Jesus and His ways you are basically discipling them

    too many today are not taught so they fall away because of the tests and trials that the devil sends against the baby Christians

    So the Word of God can be revised for a reason? Does the Word of God need to be revised and changed? Do you all mean the real Word of God can be altered in any way so it fits whoever for whatever? Isn't the Word of God...? I don't get what some say here that humans revise and changed God's Word so is more readable. So God didn't know what He was doing? That for sure is not my God!

    The last few verses in Mark's gospel about the Great Commission were added later. They are not in earlier versions of the bible, and these verses were clearly added later to give people an excuse to proselytise.

    Disciples are students. Students are taught. What is the hang up here?
