Luke 14:23-27

And the master said to the slave, ‘Go out into the roads and the hedges and press upon them to come in, so that my house will be filled.

For I tell you, none of those men who were invited shall taste my dinner.’ ” Discipleship Tested

Now large crowds were going along with Him, and He turned and said to them,

“If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his own father, mother, wife, children, brothers, sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be My disciple.

Whoever does not carry his own cross and come after Me cannot be My disciple.
