Count the Cost

“Count the Cost.”—It costs something to be a true Christian. Let that never be forgotten. To be a mere nominal Christian, and to go to church, is cheap and easy work. But to hear Christ's voice, and follow Christ, and believe in Christ and confess Christ, requires much self-denial. It will cost, us our sins, and our self-righteousness, and our ease, and our worldliness. All—all must be given up. We must fight an enemy, who comes against us with twenty thousand followers.
