Introduction 

• Misunderstanding (v20-21) 

Those we assume to be on the inside, Jesus’ family, misunderstand Him and stand outside. 

• Rejection (v22-30) 

Those who deliberately reject Jesus, place themselves outside of God’s forgiveness. 

• Redefinition (v31-35) 

Jesus declares the true insiders: a spiritual family of those who receive His saving work and live according to God’s will.
