One of Many or Your One and Only? CHAPTER 4:

A large crowd was following Jesus. He turned around and said to them, “If you want to be my disciple, you must hate everyone else by comparison—your father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters—yes, even your own life. Otherwise, you cannot be my disciple. Luke 14:25-26 (NLT)

Large crowds were walking along with Jesus, when he turned and said: “You cannot be my disciple, unless you love me more than you love your father and mother, your wife and children, and your brothers and sisters. You cannot come with me unless you love me more than you love your own life.” Luke 14:25-26 (CEV)

“Part of our human nature is to refuse change until our pain exceeds our fear—fear of change, that is.” ~Life’s Healing Choices By John F. Baker Jr.
