Jesus spent a lot of time in Luke chapter 14
telling us to count the cost of being a disciple.
A disciple of course is a "a pupil or follower ..."
Then he sums it up saying that a disciple of
his will be giving up everything he owns.
We are quick to point at some of the popular
preachers who are rich and call them hypocrites.
Some have mansions or multiple homes along
with their fine cars and large bank accounts.
But Jesus who they profess to follow, or be
disciples of, did not even own a place to sleep.
But how about you and I. Am I professing to
be a Christian or follower of Christ while all the
time spending all my efforts to improve my own
comfort or life style?
