Which One Comes First, God Or Your Family? by Nobody: 7:11pm On Oct 21, 2013
The Bible says we should love God above all, so i want to know who comes first in a christian's life, God or Family?

The reason i asked this question is this verse:

Still another said, "I will follow you, Lord; but first let me go back and say good-by to my family." Jesus replied, "No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God." [Luke 9:57-62]

Was it wrong for the man to inform his family about his whereabout first before following Jesus?

Also, was the man putting his family first before God and is it bad?
