THE MOTHER AND BROTHERS OF JESUS DOES NOT FOLLOW WHAT HIS FATHER IN HEAVEN WANTS. ARE THEY NON BELIEVER?
Jesus was still talking to the people when his mother and brothers arrived. They stood outside, asking to speak with him. So one of the people there said to him, “Look, your mother and brothers are standing outside, and they want to speak with you.” Jesus answered, “Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?” Then he pointed to his disciples and said, “Look! Here are my mother and my brothers! Whoever does what my Father in heaven wants is my brother, my sister, and my mother.” (Matthew 12:46-50)

His MOTHER wound up in the Upper Room and received the HOLY Spirit of Promise on the Day of Pentecost. Jesus’ brothers and sisters for the most part followed Him after the Resurrection. I believe they were His disciples. https://www.christianitytoday.com/history/issues/issue-59/what-happened-to-jesus-brothers.html

>>>His mother said ” Obey Jesus ” Yes, his parents & brothers followed Jesus later on.
Michael Brown
That verse in no way mean they didn’t follow. He just used the opportunity to send us this message.

Jesus made us understand that the family of believers is not about biological parents but rather anyone who accept the Gospel and align his or herself under the grace of Jesus
Susan Keller
Interesting… But not necessarily the point. Maybe Yeshua/Jesus knew people would place His own mother before Him to His own GOD HEAD. He called her WOMAN…Think what you like as for me I know his family followed him by His grace and full of His love… By Faith I know this!

Jesus had brothers and a sister or two.

I believe you added something there that isn’t there
Cheri Evans
The headline brother. It states that the mother and brothers of Jesus did not follow what his father in Heaven wants. Show me the scripture that they didn’t other than the fact that we all fall short and none of us has not send except for him
Cheri Evans
I don’t know it kind of caught me off-guard like you were saying they were any less than us. The point was that we are the same to him based on our love for him and following father, it just struck me
