What does it mean to “Count the Cost” in Luke 14:28? | GotQuestions.org
Knowing the terms of discipleship helps us honestly evaluate our true commitment to Christ. Looking at Luke 14:28 to count the cost challenges us to examine our true motives. We often approach Jesus wanting the beautiful benefits of faith, much like the crowds who loved His miracles but ignored His actual calling. When we consider the rich young ruler or the choice between God and Mammon in Matthew 6:24, we feel the heavy tension of letting go. Let's sit together and look at what this transfer of ownership actually requires for our everyday lives.
