Luke 14:33

33 In the same way, none of you who are unwilling to give up all of your possessions can be my disciple.

Luke 14:33 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 14:33

So likewise whosoever he be of you
Let him be ever so forward to follow me, to make a profession of me and of my Gospel, and to become a disciple of mine:

that forsaketh not all that he hath;
when called to it, relations, friends, possessions, estates, and what not, which is an explanation of ( Luke 14:26 )

he cannot be my disciple;
he is not in fact one, and is not worthy to be called one.

Luke 14:33 In-Context

31 Or what king would go to war against another king without first sitting down to consider whether his ten thousand soldiers could go up against the twenty thousand coming against him?
32 And if he didn't think he could win, he would send a representative to discuss terms of peace while his enemy was still a long way off.
33 In the same way, none of you who are unwilling to give up all of your possessions can be my disciple.
34 "Salt is good. But if salt loses its flavor, how will it become salty again?
35 It has no value, neither for the soil nor for the manure pile. People throw it away. Whoever has ears to hear should pay attention."
