Matthew 12:45-50 Amplified Bible (AMP)

45. Then it goes and brings with it seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and make their home there. And the last condition of that man becomes worse than the first. So also shall it be with this wicked generation.

46. Jesus was still speaking to the people when behold, His mother and brothers stood outside, seeking to speak to Him.

47. Someone said to Him, Listen! Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside, seeking to speak to You.

48. But He replied to the man who told Him, Who is My mother, and who are My brothers?

49. And stretching out His hand toward [not only the twelve disciples but all] His adherents, He said, Here are My mother and My brothers.

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