The Cost of Discipleship

Luke 9:57-62

And it came to passe that as they went in the way, a certaine man said vnto him, I will follow thee, Lord, whithersoeuer thou goest.

And Iesus saide vnto him, The foxes haue holes, and the birdes of the heauen nestes, but the Sonne of man hath not whereon to lay his head.

But he said vnto another, Followe me. And the same said, Lord, suffer me first to goe and burie my father.

And Iesus said vnto him, Let the dead burie their dead: but go thou, and preache the kingdome of God.

Then another saide, I will follow thee, Lord: but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at mine house.

And Iesus saide vnto him, No man that putteth his hand to the plough, and looketh backe, is apt to the kingdome of God.
