UNLESS THE LORD BUILDS – PART 4

BUILDING COSTS LUKE 14:25-33

TRAVELERS | DISCIPLES LUKE 14:25-27 25 Large crowds were traveling with Jesus, and turning to them he 26 said: “If anyone comes to me and does not hate father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters—yes, even their own life—such 27 a person cannot be my disciple. And whoever does not carry their cross and follow me cannot be my disciple. COST CONCERN: FOCUS & PRIORITY What rivals threaten to divide your discipleship?

STARTERS | FINISHERS LUKE 14:28-30 28 “Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Won’t you first sit down and estimate the cost to see if you have 29 enough money to complete it? For if you lay the foundation and are not able to finish it, everyone who sees it will 30 ridicule you, saying, ‘This person began to build and wasn’t able to finish.’ COST CONCERN: ADEQUATE RESOURCES Do you have the necessary resources to complete your project?

WEAKNESS | STRENGTH LUKE 14:31-33 31 “Or suppose a king is about to go to war against another king. Won’t he first sit down and consider whether he 32 is able with ten thousand men to oppose the one coming against him with twenty thousand? If he is not able, he 33 will send a delegation while the other is still a long way off and will ask for terms of peace. In the same way, those of you who do not give up everything you have cannot be my disciples. COST CONCERN: INADEQUATE ABILITY Do you recognize your weaknesses and inabilities?

WASTED | VALUABLE LUKE 14:34-35 34 35 “Salt is good, but if it loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is fit neither for the soil nor for the manure pile; it is thrown out. “Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear.” COST CONCERN: ONE PRECIOUS LIFE What can you accomplish if your precious life is leached away?

PSALM 127:1 Unless the LORD builds the house, the builders labor in vain. Unless the LORD watches over the city, the guards stand watch in vain.
