And when he heard these things, Jesus said to him, Yet one thing is lacking from thee. Sell all things, as many as thou have, and distribute to the poor, and thou will have treasure in heaven. And come, follow me.
And whoever does not bear his cross, and come behind me, cannot be my disciple.

And whoever does not bear his cross, and come behind me, cannot be my disciple. For which of you wanting to build a tower, does not, having first sat down, count the cost whether he has the things for completion? So that perhaps, having laid its foundation, and not being able to finish, all those who see begin to ridicule him, read more.
saying, This man began to build, and was not able to finish. Or what king going to encounter another king in war, will not, having first sat down, consult whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand? And if not, while he is still far off, having sent a delegation, he asks the things about peace. So therefore every man of you who does not renounce all things being possessed by him, cannot be my disciple.
