    Luke 14:33 "Simply put, if you're not willing to take what is dearest to you, whether plans or people, and kiss it good-bye, you can't be my disciple." MSG

    Welcome, AMan!

    Good to have you here.

    Re your question - context, my dear AMan, context is everything.

    The "hate" need to be seen in context as Sylvia says.

    This says it all

    Luke 14:33 (New International Version)

    33 In the same way, any of you who does not give up everything he has cannot be my disciple.

    After all

    Exodus 20:12 (New International Version)

    12 "Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the LORD your God is giving you.

    Blessings,

    Stephen
