Luke:14:28-35

*
For which of you ,
intending to build a tower , [
does ]
not first sit down and count up the cost ,
whether he has the resources to complete it ?
*
Lest perhaps after he has laid a foundation ,
and is not able to finish ,
all those who see it begin to mock him ,
*
saying , '
This man began to build and was not able to finish .'
*
Or what king ,
going to engage another king in battle , [
does ]
not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand ?
*
Otherwise ,
while the other is still far away ,
he sends a delegation and asks the [
terms ]
for peace .
*
So likewise ,
every one of you who does not renounce all his possessions cannot be My disciple .
* "
Salt is good ;
but if the salt becomes tasteless ,
with what shall it be seasoned ?
*
It is neither fit for the land nor for the dunghill ,
but men cast it out .
He who has ears to hear ,
let him hear !"
