Christ said “He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me.” That’s about priority, not abandonment “Leave everything” was a specific calling to specific individuals, not a universal mandate. Paul distinguished between those called to celibacy and marriage (1 Corinthians 7). You’re weaponizing a particular calling against the general design. Christ upheld family under His Lordship. That’s covenant faithfulness, not idolatry.
