What exactly is Luke 14:26 saying? should we hate our mothers, brother, sisters in order to be a true disciple? Luke 14:26"If anyone comes to me and does not hate his father and mother, his wife and children, his brothers and sisters—yes, even his own life—he cannot be my disciple. 27And anyone who does not carry his cross and follow me cannot be my disciple..
How is this supposed to happen? if so how many true disciples of Christ do you think that we have today, that has obeyed this command?
Just asking
God Bless You
For me it has been an issue of co-dependency, it is about not forsaking the truth despite what your family will think about you for holding to it.
I have had to deal with that all my life. My mother will not truely accept me unless I agree with her religious views, something I have refused to do part of my life. I was spiritually dead while I pretended to practice what she believes in order to gain her acceptance.

Be careful, I might give you a piece of my mind.
Hey don't get your knickers in a bunch, are you a hot head? What's the matter, cat got your tongue? That's ok, some people can't see the forest for the trees.
Please don't pick and choose - take what I say literally. LOL just kidding I'm only pulling your leg!
If you always interpret everything literally, I'll eat my hat!
