Why is it important that Jesus is not ashamed to call us brethren?

Answered in 1 source

It highlights our union with Christ and His grace in sanctifying us, affirming our identity as part of His family.

Hebrews 2:11 tells us that Jesus is not ashamed to call those who are sanctified His brethren. This is significant because it emphasizes the profound relationship believers have with Christ. Despite our flaws and sinfulness, He identifies with us intimately, as one family under His lordship. This reflects His grace and the redemptive work He accomplishes through His ministry. It assures believers of their belonging and acceptance in His eyes, affirming our status as children of God.
