so you want to be disciple of Messiah...

Luk 14:25 And great crowds came together to Him. And turning, He said to them,
Luk 14:26 If anyone comes to Me and does not love less than Me, his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brothers and sisters, and besides, even his own life, he cannot be My disciple.
Luk 14:27 And whoever does not bear his torture stake and come after Me, he cannot be My disciple.
Luk 14:28 For who of you desiring to build a tower does not first sit down and count the cost, whether he has the things to finish;
Luk 14:29 that having laid a foundation, and not having strength to finish, all those seeing begin to mock him,
Luk 14:30 saying, This man began to build, and did not have strength to finish.
Luk 14:31 Or what king going to attack another king in war does not first sit down and take counsel whether he is able with ten thousand to meet those coming upon him with twenty thousands?
Luk 14:32 But if not, he being still far off, sending a delegation, he asks the things for peace.
Luk 14:33 So then every one of you who does not forsake all his possessions is not able to be My disciple.
Luk 14:34 Salt is good, but if the salt becomes bland, with what will it be seasoned?
Luk 14:35 It is not fit for soil nor for manure; they throw it out. The one having ears to hear, let him hear.

Joh 8:31 Then said Yeshua to those Jews which believed on him, If you continue in My Word, then are you my disciples indeed;
Joh 8:32 And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.
Joh 8:33 They answered Him, We are Abraham's seed, and we have never been servants owing debt to anyone, never! How do You say, You will become free?
Joh 8:34 Yeshua answered them, Truly, truly, I say to you, Everyone practicing sin is a servant of sin.
Joh 8:35 But the servant does not remain in the house forever; the son remains forever.
Joh 8:36 Therefore, if the Son sets you free, you are free indeed.

Joh 13:34 I give a new commandment to you, that you should love one another; according as I loved you, you should also love one another.
Joh 13:35 By this all shall know that you are My disciples, if you have love among one another.

Joh 15:1 I am the True Vine, and My Father is the Vinedresser.
Joh 15:2 Every branch in Me not bearing fruit, He takes it away; and each one bearing fruit, He prunes, so that it may bear more fruit.
Joh 15:3 You are already pruned because of the Word which I have spoken to you.
Joh 15:4 Remain in Me, and I in you. As the branch is not able to bear fruit of itself, unless it remain in the vine, so neither can you unless you remain in Me.
Joh 15:5 I am the Vine and you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, this man will produce plentiful fruit because without me you are not able to do anything.
Joh 15:6 Unless one remains in Me, he is cast out as the branch and is dried up; and they gather and throw them into a fire, and they are burned.
Joh 15:7 If you remain in Me, and My Words remain in you, whatever you desire you will ask, and it shall happen to you.
Joh 15:8 In this My Father is glorified, that you should bear much fruit; and you will be disciples to Me.
