Jesus of Nazareth said unto them,
“Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men”
And there went great multitudes with Jesus of Nazareth, and He turned and said unto them,
“If any man come to Me and hate not his father and mother, and wife and children, and brethren and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple.
And whosoever does not bear his cross (yoke) and come after Me cannot be My disciple.
For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it?
Lest it may happen, after he hath laid the foundation and is not able to finish it, all who behold it begin to mock him, saying, ‘This man began to build and was not able to finish.’ Or what king, going to make war against another king, sitteth not down first and consulteth whether he be able with ten thousand to meet him that cometh against him with twenty thousand? Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sendeth an envoy and desireth conditions of peace.
In the same way, therefore, every one of you who does not renounce or leave all his possessions
cannot be my disciple!
