Looks to me more as if Jesus was trying to distance himself from his mother instead of creating a 'spiritual family'.  He did the same thing at the wedding when changing water into wine.  Cut the umbilical cord!

How does Jesus define members of his spiritual family? Does this include you?
He calls His family not those related through blood, but those who perform His will are God`s children too, that makes them family.I belong to His family too, since he gave the right to become His children to all who believe in Him.

In accordance with Mark 3 Vs 31-35 , Jesus define members of His spiritual family as those who does the will of God. In this case, those who accept and follow Jesus are given power to become the Children of God. '' John 1 Vs 12''. Siting around Jesus and doind nothing does not make any person to be a brother of Jesus. Let us do the will of God to preach the good news in order for us to be part of this important Spiritual Family. Iam happy to let you know that am include in Jesus`s spiritual family. God bless you brothers and Sisters in the lord . AMEN!

Members of Jesus` spiritual family are those who do the will of God. The will of God is that we accept and believe in the one and only son of God, whom he provided as an atonement for our sins, and as means of our reconcilliation to the father. To them He gave the right to be Children of God. In this category, I believe I am one member of this family. The only problem is that I sometimes find myself in a catch 22 situation, trying to pursue my own will. May God forbit that I should not befound unworthy to partake of his family by right.

I have always wondered - are the brothers and sisters referred to Jesus` cousins? Why did He not welcome His Mother, whom He loved and who went from place to place with Him?

All those who believe in the one true God and who does His will, are members of Jesus` spiritual family. It certainly does include me.

Jesus declars that who ever does the will of God the Father, is a member of His family.The Bible states that we are joint heirs with Christ, as long as we accpet Jesus to be Lord and saviour and keep His commandments.

Behold!, the doer and not the hearer of the world. With this saying, I am surely one the Christ immediate family.

Jesus' Mother and Brothers

His mother and his brothers came, and standing outside, they sent to him, calling him. A multitude was sitting around him, and they told him, "Behold, your mother, your brothers, and your sisters are outside looking for you."
He answered them, "Who are my mother and my brothers?" Looking around at those who sat around him, he said, "Behold, my mother and my brothers! For whoever does the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother."

Mark 3:31-35
