Luke 14:25 in context
23And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.
24For I say unto you, That none of those men which were bidden shall taste of my supper.
25And there went great multitudes with him: and he turned, and said unto them,

27And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.
