Luke 14:33 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

So — Like this man, who, being afraid to face his enemy, sends to make peace with him, every one who forsaketh not all that he hath — By withdrawing his affections from all the creatures; By enjoying them only in and for God, only in such a measure and manner as leads to him; By hating them all, in the sense above mentioned, cannot be my disciple — But will surely desist from building that tower, neither can he persevere in fighting the good fight of faith.

Luke 14:33

33 So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple.
