Commentaries
Requirements of Discipleship.
The excitement caused by Jesus’ teachings and miracles should not mislead those who want to follow him. Following Jesus involves certain unavoidable conditions: 1. A life free of attachments or securities, impoverished and itinerant. 2. Full readiness for the mission. 3. Following Jesus must be immediate: once the call is received, the path and demands of the kingdom of God cannot be delayed.
