'Luke 14:26, 'If any man comes to me without hating his father, mother, wife, children, brothers, sisters, yes and his own life too, he cannot be my disciple.'
The word "Hate - hating", translated in Greek means to love less. It's important to check exactly what the word means from time to time because it may have different meanings that what we know in English.
We have to put God first and of course Jesus because we cannot go to God except through Him. Our love needs to be directed towards Jesus in order to follow Him. The road is long, narrow and laborious and we have to prove our love for Him by trusting in Him.
Jesus is going to teach us the things we need to know and overcome so that we can be purified and be in union once again with God. This is how we can acquire and be filled with the unconditional love of God which then we will be able to love everyone equally, just as God and Jesus does.
Luke14:27, 'Anyone who does not carry his cross and come after me cannot be my disciple.'
Accept Jesus Christ in your heart, pick up your cross and follow Him. He has a long journey prepared just for you and at the end, you will need your cross to nail your flesh to. Jesus is going to teach you and show you what you need to overcome. He will help you prepare your soul for purification in order to receive the Spirit of Truth (John 14:15-17).
Luke 14:33, 'So in the same way, none of you can be my disciple unless he gives up all his possessions.'
This scripture has stopped many people in their tracks. How much baggage can one take with them when they are traveling this long, narrow path while carrying a cross? The whole point of the scripture is, What do you love the most, Jesus or your possessions? What fills your heart?
