Jesus said to him, “If you wish to be perfect, go,
sell what you have and give to the poor,
and you will have treasure in heaven.
Then come, follow me.”
When the young man heard this statement, he went away sad,
for he had many possessions. (Mt 19:16-22)

When the cost of discipleship goes up, will we rise to the occasion? The saints have no problem. When they hear the gospel, they know it is addressed to them. Because that is the invitation that comes to us all, “Come, follow me.”
