How do we know the cost of discipleship?

Answered in 1 source

Discipleship requires self-denial and the willingness to forsake all for Christ.

The cost of discipleship is articulated clearly in Luke 14:28-33, where Jesus asks if a builder would start constructing a tower without counting the cost. He likens this to following Him, urging potential disciples to evaluate whether they can meet the demands of true discipleship. In essence, discipleship is not simply a matter of belief but involves a commitment to deny oneself, take up one's cross, and follow Christ. This means that one must be ready to give up everything, even their own life, if necessary, to faithfully follow Him. Those who do not fully commit may find themselves lacking in true discipleship.
