Matthew 8:18-22

False Disciples: John 2:23-25, 6:66; Matthew 7:13-14,21-23, 10:32-39; Luke 9:23-26, 14:26-33

2 Sacrifices You Must Make to Follow Christ
1.  The Sacrifice of Cherished Comforts – Vss. 18-20
2.  The Sacrifice of Personal Relationships – Vss. 21-22

Implications:
1.  You must not put off following Christ
2.  You don’t get to set the terms of following Christ
3.  We need to get our priorities straight

Following Christ is the most important thing in your life
Colossians 1:15-23
