Luke 14:28 in Context — Luke 14
26 Si alguno viene á mí, y no aborrece á su padre, y madre, y mujer, é hijos, y hermanos, y hermanas, y aun también su vida, no puede ser mi discípulo.
27 Y cualquiera que no trae su cruz, y viene en pos de mí, no puede ser mi discípulo.
28 Porque ¿cuál de vosotros, queriendo edificar una torre, no cuenta primero sentado los gastos, si tiene lo que necesita para acabarla?
29 Porque después que haya puesto el fundamento, y no pueda acabarla, todos los que [lo] vieren, no comiencen á hacer burla de él,
30 Diciendo: Este hombre comenzó á edificar, y no pudo acabar.
