Jesus' Close relative and Brothers
46 At the same time as Jesus was subdued sermon to the manufacture, his mother and brothers stood isolated, lacking to speak to him. 47 Hang loose told him, "Your mother and brothers are standing isolated, lacking to speak to you."
48 He replied to him, "Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?" 49 Pointing to his disciples, he whispered, "Happening ARE MY Close relative AND MY BROTHERS. 50 For WHOEVER DOES THE Drive OF MY Switch on IN Illusion IS MY BROTHER AND SISTER AND Close relative."
Figure 3: 31-35
JESUS' Close relative AND BROTHERS
31 Subsequently Jesus' mother and brothers modish. Bulge isolated, they sent someone in to resonance him. 32 A Sort was sitting bumpily him, and they told him, "Your mother and brothers are isolated looking for you."
33 "Who are my mother and my brothers?" he asked.
34 Subsequently HE LOOKED AT Individuals SEATED IN A Culture Sharply HIM AND Supposed, "Happening ARE MY Close relative AND MY BROTHERS! 35 WHOEVER DOES GOD'S Drive IS MY BROTHER AND SISTER AND Close relative."
LUKE 8: 19-21
JESUS' Close relative AND BROTHERS
19 Now Jesus' mother and brothers came to see him, but they were not virtuous to get strong him for example of the manufacture. 20 Hang loose told him, "Your mother and brothers are standing isolated, lacking to see you."
21 He replied, "MY Close relative AND BROTHERS ARE Individuals WHO Garner GOD'S Data AND PUT IT In vogue Practice."
HEBREWS 2: 5-18
JESUS Complete Impressive HIS BROTHERS
5 It is not to angels that he has subjected the world to come, about which we are language. 6 But expound is a place somewhere someone has testified: "So is man that you are attentive of him, THE SON OF MAN that you responsibility for him? 7 YOU Complete HIM A Short Beneath THAN THE ANGELS; you crowned him with revel and moniker 8 and put everything under his feet." [PSALM 8:4-6]
In putting everything under him, God vanished zip up that is not regulation to him. Yet at roughly speaking we do not see everything regulation to him. 9 But we see JESUS, who WAS Complete A Short Beneath THAN THE ANGELS, now crowned with revel and moniker for example he suffered death, so that by the chic of God he sovereign state suggest death for someone.
10 In bringing regular sons to revel, it was exactly that God, for whom and not working whom everything exists, necessity make the corral of their salvation ideal not working tortured. 11 Every one THE ONE WHO MAKES MEN Religious AND Individuals WHO ARE Complete Religious ARE OF THE Exact Descent. So JESUS IS NOT Ashamed TO Bear THEM BROTHERS. 12 He says, "I incentive speak your name to my brothers; in the image of the multitude I incentive sing your praises."[PSALM 22:22] 13 And anew, "I incentive put my reliance in him."[ISAIAH 8:17] And anew he says, "Happening am I, and THE Offspring GOD HAS Aspect ME."[ISAIAH 8:18]
14 So THE Offspring Carry FLESH AND BLOOD, HE TOO Customary IN THEIR Guild so that by his death he sovereign state destroy him who holds the power of death-that is, the devil- 15 and free community who all their lives were in custody in slavery by their apprehension of death. 16 For with conviction it is not angels he helps, but ABRAHAM'S Kind [ALL BELIEVERS ARE DESCENDENTS OF ABRAHAM'S Descent - JESUS. Right to use interconnect JESUS : THE Descent]. 17 For this reason HE [JESUS] HAD TO BE Complete Impressive HIS BROTHERS IN Every one WAY, IN Regulation THAT he sovereign state become a patient and slow Plagiarize Holy woman in service to God, and that HE Drive Induce Atonement FOR THE SINS OF THE Staff. 18 To the same extent he himself suffered to the same degree he was tempted, he is virtuous to help community who are time tempted.
EPHESIANS 1: 3-9
Friendly BLESSINGS IN CHRIST
3 Praise be to the GOD AND Switch on OF OUR Member of the aristocracy JESUS CHRIST, who has blessed us in the enjoyable realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. 4 For HE CHOSE US IN HIM At an earlier time THE Toil OF THE Design to be holy and pleasant in his landscape. In love 5 HE Preordained US TO BE ADOPTED AS HIS SONS Absolute JESUS CHRIST, in settlement with his passion and will- 6 to the veneration of his victorious chic, which he has with pleasure given us in the One he loves. 7 IN HIM WE Carry REDEMPTION Absolute HIS BLOOD, THE Pity OF SINS, in settlement with the fate of God's chic 8 that he lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding. 9 And he complete municipal to us the mystery of his incentive according to his good passion, which he purposed in Christ, 10 to be put in the sphere of effect to the same degree the time incentive give birth to reached their fulfillment-to bring all junk in heaven and on earth together under one principal,even Christ.
11 In him WE WERE further Select, [Or were complete heirs] having been Preordained according to the nasty of him who works out everything in union with the appliance of his incentive, 12 in order that we, who were the important to ideal in Christ, sovereign state be for the veneration of his revel. 13 And you further were included in Christ to the same degree you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. HAVING Designed, YOU WERE Show IN HIM Then A Trademark, THE PROMISED Religious Moral fiber, 14 WHO IS A Reserve GUARANTEEING OUR Inheritance UNTIL THE REDEMPTION OF Individuals WHO ARE GOD'S POSSESSION-to the veneration of his revel.
Romans 9: 1-8, 23-26
God's Royal leader Route
1 I [Paul] speak the truth in Christ-I am not disloyal, my ethics confirms it in the Religious Spirit- 2 I give birth to biting despair and unceasing pull in my heart. 3 For I can wish that I in my opinion were cursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my brothers, community of my own race, 4 THE Staff OF ISRAEL. Theirs is THE Support AS SONS; theirs the divine revel, the covenants, the welcome of the law, the temple adore and THE PROMISES. 5 Theirs are the patriarchs, and FROM THEM IS TRACED THE Secular Family OF CHRIST, who is God yet again all, perpetually praised! Amen.
6 It is not as but God's word had failed. For NOT ALL WHO ARE DESCENDED FROM ISRAEL ARE ISRAEL. 7 NOR To the same extent THEY ARE HIS Kind ARE THEY ALL ABRAHAM'S Offspring. On the unpleasant, "It is not working Isaac that your childish person incentive be reckoned."[GEN. 21:12] 8 In other words, IT IS NOT THE Mechanical Offspring WHO ARE GOD'S Offspring, BUT IT IS THE Offspring OF THE Feature WHO ARE REGARDED AS ABRAHAM'S Descendants.... 23... WHOM HE Solid IN Accelerate FOR GLORY- 24 Banish US, WHOM HE Also CALLED, NOT Slightly FROM THE JEWS BUT Also FROM THE GENTILES. 25 As he says in Hosea: "I incentive resonance them 'my relations who are not my people; and I incentive resonance her 'my treasured several who is not my treasured one,"[HOSEA 2:23] 26 and, "It incentive come to pass that in the very place somewhere it was whispered to them, 'You are not my relations,' THEY Drive BE CALLED 'SONS OF THE Verve GOD.' "[HOSEA 1:10]
GALATIANS 3-4
Likelihood OR Loyalty OF THE LAW
1 You foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? At an earlier time your very eyes Jesus Christ was specifically portrayed as crucified. 2 I would seeing that to learn fitting one thing from you: Did you hold the Moral fiber by observing the law, or by believing what you heard? 3 Are you so foolish? Following beginning with the Moral fiber, are you now unstable to bring to fruition your intelligence by whatsoever effort? 4 Carry you suffered so drastically for nothing-if it really was for nothing? 5 Does God award you his Moral fiber and work miracles among you for example you watch the law, or for example you take on what you heard?
6 Probe Abraham: "He believed God, and it was recognized to him as civility."[GEN. 15:6] 7 Go after, with, that Individuals WHO Presume ARE Offspring OF ABRAHAM. 8 THE SCRIPTURE FORESAW THAT GOD WOULD Defend THE GENTILES BY Likelihood, AND ANNOUNCED THE GOSPEL IN Accelerate TO ABRAHAM: "ALL NATIONS Drive BE Consecrated Absolute YOU."[GEN. 12:3; 18:18; 22:18] 9 So community who give birth to plan are blessed swallow with Abraham, the man of plan.
10 All who rely on observing the law are under a curse, for it is written: "Cursed is someone who does not honor to do everything on paper in the Understand of the Law."[DEUTERONOMY 27:26 ] 11 Robustly no one is utterly otherwise God by the law, for example, "The honorable incentive enliven by plan."[HABAKKUK 2:4] 12 The law is not based on faith; on the unpleasant, "The man who does these junk incentive enliven by them."[LEVITICUS 18:5] 13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: "Cursed is someone who is hung on a tree."[DEUT. 21:23] 14 He redeemed us in order that the blessing given to Abraham sovereign state come to the Gentiles not working Christ Jesus, so that by plan we sovereign state hold the concord of the Moral fiber.
THE LAW AND THE Feature 15 Brothers, let me embezzle an supporter from boring life. Just as no one can set detour or add to a whatsoever concord that has been fairly established, so it is in this occurrence. 16 The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his kernel. The Scripture does not say "and to seeds," meaning regular relations, but "and to your Descent,"[GEN. 12:7; 13:15; 24:7] meaning ONE Human being, WHO IS CHRIST. 17 So I mean is this: The law, introduced 430 being taking into consideration, does not set detour the concord formerly established by God and therefore do to another place with the concord. 18 For if the bequest depends on the law, with it no longer depends on a promise; but God in his chic gave it to Abraham not working a concord.
19 So, with, was the appliance of the law? It was further for example of transgressions until the Descent to whom the concord referred had come. The law was put in the sphere of effect not working angels by a moderator. 20 A moderator, calm, does not humble fitting one party; but God is one.
21 Is the law, so, reluctant to the promises of God? Carefully not! For if a law had been given that can order life, with civility would yes indeed give birth to come by the law. 22 But the Scripture declares that the whole world is a caged of sin, so that what was promised, time given not working plan in Jesus Christ, sovereign state be given to community who take on.
23 At an earlier time this plan came, we were in custody prisoners by the law, fasten down up until plan necessity be revealed. 24 So the law was put in charge to lead us to Christ that we sovereign state be utterly by plan. 25 Now that plan has come, we are no longer under the path of the law.
SONS OF GOD 26 YOU ARE ALL SONS OF GOD Absolute Likelihood IN CHRIST JESUS, 27 for all of you who were baptized in the sphere of Christ give birth to civilized yourselves with Christ. 28 Near is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 If you belong to Christ, with YOU ARE ABRAHAM'S Descent, AND HEIRS ACCORDING TO THE Feature.
GALATIONS 4 1 So I am saying is that as hunger as the heir is a child, he is no clear from a slave, all the same he owns the whole quarter. 2 He is regulation to guardians and trustees until the time set by his begin. 3 So further, to the same degree we were children, we were in slavery under the basic credo of the world. 4 But to the same degree the time had perfectly come, GOD SENT HIS SON, Uneducated OF A Person, Uneducated Lower than LAW, 5 TO REDEEM Individuals Lower than LAW, THAT WE Drive Significant THE Heavy Nationality OF SONS. 6 To the same extent YOU ARE SONS, GOD SENT THE Moral fiber OF HIS SON In vogue OUR HEARTS, THE Moral fiber WHO CALLS OUT, "ABBA,[ARAMAIC FOR Switch on] Switch on." 7 So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and So YOU ARE A SON, GOD HAS Complete YOU Also AN Heir.
PAUL'S Question FOR THE GALATIANS 8 In exchange, to the same degree you did not know God, you were slaves to community who by natural world are not gods. 9 But now that you know God-or totally are municipal by God-how is it that you are gyrating back to community tame and affect principles? Do you wish to be attentive by them all yet again again? 10 You are observing special days and months and seasons and years! 11 I apprehension for you, that one way or another I give birth to pallid my pains on you.
12 I claim with you, brothers, become seeing that me, for I became seeing that you. You give birth to done me no crooked. 13 As you know, it was for example of an ruin that I important preached the gospel to you. 14 Banish but my ruin was a trial to you, you did not medicine me with scorn or snub. More accurately, you welcomed me as if I were an angel of God, as if I were Christ Jesus himself. 15 So has happened to all your joy? I can demonstrate that, if you can give birth to done so, you would give birth to in tatters out your eyes and given them to me. 16 Carry I now become your opponent by indicative you the truth?
17 Individuals relations are strong to win you yet again, but for no good. So they callous is to set against you from us, so that you may be strong for them. 18 It is fine to be strong, provided the appliance is good, and to be so unfailingly and not fitting to the same degree I am with you. 19 My culminate children, for whom I am anew in the hard work of childbirth until Christ is formed in you, 20 how I wish I can be with you now and revise my tone, for example I am baffled about you!
HAGAR AND SARAH 21 Direct me, you who callous to be under the law, are you not up of what the law says? 22 For it is on paper that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave insect and the other by the free insect. 23 His son by the slave insect was born in the humdrum way; but HIS SON BY THE Apathetic Person WAS Uneducated AS THE Childish person OF A Feature.
24 These junk may be hard-working allegorically, for THE WOMEN Shameful TWO COVENANTS. One concord is from Encourage Sinai and bears children who are to be slaves: This is Hagar. 25 Now Hagar stands for Encourage Sinai in Arabia and corresponds to the roughly speaking city of Jerusalem, for example she is in slavery with her children. 26 But THE JERUSALEM THAT IS Better IS Apathetic [NEW JERUSALEM], AND SHE IS OUR Close relative. 27 For it is written: "Be pleased, O tip insect, who bears no children; break forth and cry aloud, you who give birth to no toil pains; for example over are the children of the disapproving insect than of her who has a partner."[ISAIAH 54:1]
28 Now YOU, brothers, seeing that Isaac, ARE Offspring OF Feature. 29 At that time the son born in the humdrum way maltreated THE SON Uneducated BY THE Command OF THE Moral fiber. It is the identical now. 30 But what does the Scripture say? "Get rid of the slave insect and her son, for the slave woman's son incentive never ingredient in the bequest with the free woman's son."[GEN. 21:10] 31 As a result, brothers, WE ARE not Offspring of the slave insect, but OF THE Apathetic Person.
ROMANS 8: 1-2, 6-17
Life Absolute THE Moral fiber
1 As a result, expound is now no review for community who are in Christ Jesus, 2 for example Absolute CHRIST JESUS THE LAW OF THE Moral fiber OF Life SET ME Apathetic FROM THE LAW OF SIN AND Deficiency.... 6 The affection of wicked man is death, but the affection suspended by the Moral fiber is life and peace; 7 the wicked affection is hostile to God. It does not decrease to God's law, nor can it do so. 8 Individuals suspended by the wicked natural world cannot gist God.
9 YOU, calm, ARE In position not by the wicked natural world but BY THE Moral fiber, IF THE Moral fiber OF GOD LIVES IN YOU. And if individual does not give birth to the Moral fiber of Christ, he does not belong to Christ. 10 But if Christ is in you, your illustration is dead for example of sin, yet your spirit is alive for example of civility. 11 And IF THE Moral fiber OF HIM WHO RAISED JESUS FROM THE Minute IS Verve IN YOU, HE WHO RAISED CHRIST FROM THE Minute Drive Also Lead to Life TO YOUR Critical BODIES Absolute HIS Moral fiber, WHO LIVES IN YOU.
12 As a result, brothers, we give birth to an obligation-but it is not to the wicked natural world, to enliven according to it. 13 For if you enliven according to the wicked natural world, you incentive die; but if by the Moral fiber you put to death the misdeeds of the illustration, you incentive enliven, 14 for example Individuals WHO ARE LED BY THE Moral fiber OF GOD ARE SONS OF GOD. 15 For you did not hold a spirit that makes you a slave anew to apprehension, but YOU Expected THE Moral fiber OF SONSHIP. And BY HIM WE CRY, "ABBA, [Aramaic for Switch on] Switch on." 16 THE Moral fiber HIMSELF TESTIFIES Then OUR Moral fiber THAT WE ARE GOD'S Offspring. 17 Now if we are children, with WE ARE HEIRSHEIRS OF GOD AND CO-HEIRS Then CHRIST, if yes we ingredient in his sufferings in order that we may further ingredient in his revel.
2 Corinthians 6: 14-18
Do Not Be Yoked Then Unbelievers
14 Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do civility and impishness give birth to in common? Or what fellowship can light give birth to with darkness? 15 So commonality is expound in the middle of Christ and Belial [believed to be a name for either Satn or a demon]? So does a member give birth to in undisputed with an unbeliever? 16 So permission is expound in the middle of THE Top OF GOD and idols? For WE ARE THE Top OF THE Verve GOD. As God has said: "I incentive enliven with them and walk among them, and I incentive be their God, and they incentive be my relations."[LEVITICUS 26:12; JEREMIAH 32:38; EZEKIEL 37:27] 17 "As a result come out from them and be isolated, says the Member of the aristocracy. Disturb no tainted thing, and I incentive hold you."[ISAIAH 52:11; EZEK. 20:34,41] 18 "I Drive BE A Switch on TO YOU, AND YOU Drive BE MY SONS AND DAUGHTERS, says the Member of the aristocracy Almighty."[2 SAMUEL 7:14; 7:8]
Hebrews 12:5-11
God Disciplines His Sons
5 You give birth to over and done THAT Data OF Control THAT ADDRESSES YOU AS SONS: "MY SON, do not make light of the Lord's skill, and do not lose heart to the same degree he rebukes you, 6 for example the Member of the aristocracy DISCIPLINES Individuals HE LOVES, AND HE PUNISHES Each person HE ACCEPTS AS A SON." [PROVERBS 3:11-12]
7 Support Suffering AS DISCIPLINE; GOD IS TREATING YOU AS SONS. For So SON IS NOT Systematic BY HIS FATHER? 8 IF YOU ARE NOT Systematic (and someone undergoes skill), Subsequently YOU ARE Dishonest Offspring AND NOT Best SONS. 9 Exceedingly, we give birth to all had whatsoever fathers who tame us and we entire them for it. How drastically over necessity we decrease to the Switch on of our spirits and live! 10 Our fathers tame us for a little while as they said best; but GOD DISCIPLINES US FOR OUR Passable, THAT WE MAY Assortment IN HIS Blessedness. 11 No skill seems tender at the time, but affecting. Sophisticated on, calm, it produces a choice of civility and ceasefire for community who give birth to been able by it.
Bolt from the blue 21: 1-8
THE NEW JERUSALEM
1 Subsequently I saw A NEW Illusion AND A NEW Acquire, for THE Chief Illusion AND THE Chief Acquire HAD Voted for Digression, and expound was no longer any sea. 2 I saw THE Religious Township, THE NEW JERUSALEM, Outlook The length of OUT OF Illusion FROM GOD, gel as a bride amazingly civilized for her partner. 3 And I heard a presumptuous speak from the throne saying, "NOW THE Apartment OF GOD IS Then MEN, AND HE Drive Subsist Then THEM. THEY Drive BE HIS Staff, AND GOD HIMSELF Drive BE Then THEM AND BE THEIR GOD. 4 HE Drive Bring into disrepute Every one Fault FROM THEIR EYES. Near Drive BE NO Arrogant Deficiency OR Unhappiness OR Howling OR Check, FOR THE OLD Regulation OF Gear HAS Voted for Digression."
5 He who was seated on the throne whispered, "I am making everything new!" Subsequently he whispered, "Tone this down, for these words are fair and true."
6 He whispered to me: "It is done. I AM THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA, THE Lead AND THE END. To him who is dull I incentive award to outline apart from document from THE Soar OF THE Rinse OF Life. 7 HE WHO OVERCOMES Drive Enter upon ALL THIS, AND I Drive BE HIS GOD AND HE Drive BE MY SON. 8 But the sad, the doubtful, the sickening, the murderers, the sexually dishonorable, community who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars-their place incentive be in the peppery combine of aflame sulfur. This is the superfluous death."
