Luke 14:33
Compare all
31 Or what king, going to make war against another king, does not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand?
32 Or else, while the other is still a great way off, he sends a delegation and asks conditions of peace.
33 So likewise, whoever of you adoes not forsake all that he has cannot be My disciple.  

Tasteless Salt Is Worthless

34 a“Salt is good; but if the salt has lost its flavor, how shall it be seasoned?  
35 It is neither fit for the land nor for the1 dunghill, but men throw it out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”

John Wesley's Notes
<< Luke 14:32   Luke 14:34 >>


Luke 14:33

So - Like this man, who, being afraid to face his enemy, sends to make peace with him, every one who forsaketh not all that he hath - By withdrawing his affections from all the creatures; By enjoying them only in and for God, only in such a measure and manner as leads to him; By hating them all, in the sense above mentioned, cannot be my disciple - But will surely desist from building that tower, neither can he persevere in fighting the good fight of faith.
