Before any decision is made, one must determine the cost before moving forward. Many people are curious about Jesus and interested in following Him, but unsure if they are willing to surrender what is necessary. Jesus made it very clear what the cost is to follow Him. That cost is not anything one can do other than love Him with their whole heart which results in the denial of self.
