Who is Your Father, Mother, Brother and Neighbor? NKJV


Father

Malachi 2:10 Have we not all one Father? Has not one God created us? Why do we deal treacherously with one another By profaning the covenant of the fathers?

Jeremiah 31:8-9 Behold, I will bring them from the north country, And gather them from the ends of the earth, Among them the blind and the lame, The woman with child And the one who labors with child, together; A great throng shall return there.

They shall come with weeping, And with supplications I will lead them. I will cause them to walk by the rivers of waters, In a straight way in which they shall not stumble; For I am a Father to Israel, And Ephraim is My firstborn.

Matthew 10:34-39 "Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword.

"For I have come to set a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law;

"and 'a man's enemies will be those of his own household.'

"He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me.“He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for my sake will find it.

"And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me.

"He who finds his life will lose it, and he who hates his life for My sake will find it.

Matthew 15:4-6 "For God commanded, saying, 'Honor your father and your mother', and, 'He who curses father or mother, let him be put to death.'

"But you say, 'Whoever says to his father or mother, "Whatever profit you might have received from me is a gift to God."--

'then he need not honor his father or mother.' Thus you have made the commandment of God of no effect by your tradition.

Matthew 23:9 "Do not call anyone on earth your father; for One is your Father, He who is in heaven.

Mother and brothers 

Matthew 12:46-50 While He was still talking to the multitudes, behold, His mother and brothers stood outside, seeking to speak with Him.

Then one said to Him, "Look, Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside, seeking to speak with You."

But He answered and said to the one who told Him, "Who is My mother and My brothers!

And He stretched out His hand toward His disciples and said, "Here are My mother and My brothers!

"For whoever does the will of My Father in heaven is My brother and sister and mother."

Luke 8:19-21 Then His mother and His brothers came to Him, and could not approach Him because of the crowd.

And it was told Him by some, who said, "Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside, desiring to see you."

But He answered and said to them, "My mother and My brothers are these who hear the word of God and do it."

John 15:13-17 "Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends.

"You are My friends if you do whatever I command you.

"No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you.

"You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you.

"These things I command you that you love one another.
