“By
believing in Christ, receiving him as a Saviour and Redeemer, and
submitting to him in all his ordinances, as King of saints: the same
is my brother, and my sister, and my mother: such are openly, and
manifestly related to Christ in a spiritual sense; and are as dear to
him, and more so, than such persons are who stand in such a relation
to others, or did to him according to the flesh. And this shows not
only the near relation, and strong affection which Christ has for his
people, but that he is not ashamed of them; and it may be concluded,
that he will resent, in the keenest manner, every injury that is done
them.” - John Gill - Theologian
