Matthew 10:37-39

GOD’S WORD Translation

³⁷ “The person who loves his father or mother more than me does not deserve to be my disciple. The person who loves a son or daughter more than me does not deserve to be my disciple. ³⁸ Whoever doesn’t take up his cross and follow me doesn’t deserve to be my disciple. ³⁹ The person who tries to preserve his life will lose it, but the person who loses his life for me will preserve it.
