Luke [White-light] 14:28-34

²⁸For which of you, desiring to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost, to see if he has enough to complete it?

²⁹Or perhaps, when he has laid a foundation, and is not able to finish, everyone who sees begins to mock him,

³⁰saying, ‘This man began to build, and was not able to finish.’

³¹Or what king, as he goes to encounter another king in war, will not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand?

³²Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sends an envoy, and asks for conditions of peace.

³³So therefore whoever of you who does not renounce all that he has, he can’t be my disciple.

³⁴Salt is good, but if the salt becomes flat and tasteless, with what do you season it?
