Lucas 14:27 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 14:27

cannot be my disciple;
he is not so in reality, nor does he deserve the name.

27 Y el que no carga su cruz y me sigue, no puede ser mi discípulo.
28 »Supongamos que alguno de ustedes quiere construir una torre. ¿Acaso no se sienta primero a calcular el costo, para ver si tiene suficiente dinero para terminarla?
29 Si echa los cimientos y no puede terminarla, todos los que la vean comenzarán a burlarse de él,
