Luke 9:61
59 Then He said to another man, “Follow Me.” The man replied, “Lord, first let me go and bury my father.”
60 But Jesus told him, “Let the dead bury their own dead. You, however, go and proclaim the kingdom of God.”
Still another said, “I will follow You, Lord; but first let me bid farewell to my family.”
62 Then Jesus declared, “No one who puts his hand to the plow and then looks back is fit for the kingdom of God.”
