I would trample upon my mother – Thomas Brooks

“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.” Luke 14:26

Surely they do not truly love Christ who love anything more than Christ.

It was a notable saying of Jerome, “If my father should hang upon me, my brethren should press round about me, and my mother should stand before me I would throw down my father, I would break through my brethren, and I would trample upon my mother to come to Christ.”
