Do you literally hate your family? Do you walk around with a cross on your shoulders? What would make anyone think this is supposed to be taken literally?

The presence or absence of authoritative Church teaching.

Yes Jesus meant everything he said. Jesus wants to be #1 in our lives. We have to love him MORE than anyone. He is our Master! He is our everything! Paul and the apostles referred to themselves as “slaves” of Christ!

Jesus must come first. We have to love him more our own parents, our own children!

This will be the last youtube video I’ll link you to LoL:

“You need to way in on the cost factor and count the cost of being a disciple of Jesus Christ.”

What does it cost you to follow Christ? Everything. Steve Lawson preaches on Luke 14 on the Cost of Discipleship. The sad reality is that many people are just part of a crowd, many are in the crowd of those who listen to Piper, Washer, Conway, MacArthur, yet they themselves have not truly submitted to the Lordship of Christ. Search yourself out this very day... have you come to saving faith? Or do you just wish you had the reality of Christ that you see others have? Don’t be part of the wrong crowd.
