Definition of Saints: “Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God” — Ephesians 2:19
Protection: “He keepeth the paths of judgment, and preserveth the way of his saints” — Proverbs 2:8 (KJV)
Behavior: “…let [fornication, uncleanness, covetousness] not be once named among you, as becometh saints” — Ephesians 5:3
Community/Fellowship: “Defending the truth and helping the saints” (Context: supporting fellow believers) — 3 John 1:5-8
Heavenly Witness: “Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders…” — Hebrews 12:1
Living and Dead: In the New Testament, “saints” usually refers to living Christians, but it also applies to the faithful departed in heaven (Hebrews 12:22-24).
Intercession: Revelation 5:8 mentions the “prayers of the saints” being offered to God, which is interpreted by some traditions as the prayers of those in heaven.
Intercession: Revelation 5:8 mentions the “prayers of the saints” being offered to God, which is interpreted by some traditions as the prayers of those in heaven.
Function: They are called to be a “holy nation” and a “royal priesthood” (1 Peter 2:9).
Hebrews 6:10 “For God is not unjust so as to overlook your work and the love that you have shown for his name in serving the saints, as you still do.”
Romans 8:27 “And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.”
Psalm 31:23 “Love the Lord, all you his saints! The Lord preserves the faithful but abundantly repays the one who acts in pride.”
Daniel 7:27 “And the kingdom and the dominion and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven shall be given to the people of the saints of the Most High; his kingdom shall be an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him.
First Corinthians 1:2 “To the church of God that is in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints together with all those who in every place call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, both their Lord and ours.”
Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior. The Saints give out of an endless well of all of God’s goodness that includes every gift of the spirit.
Colossians 1:11-13 “May you be strengthened with all power, according to his glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy, giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in light. He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son.”
Conclusion
If you’re born again, then you’re already a saint even while yet a sinner (1st John 1:8, 10) like me and just like Martin Luther said so there is no set amount of time you must wait before being considered a saint. It doesn’t need the approval of the Vatican, and it doesn’t depend on other members in the church voting you. Positionally, you are now a saint of God. That’s how God looks at you and how you must look at other believers. This is what Paul and the other New Testament authors referred to the Christians. Paul addresses the church at Rome; “To all those in Rome who are loved by God and called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ” (Rom 1:7).

God bless you!
I pray you are encouraged and kept. Our God is greater because He is sovereign and perfect! Thanks be to the LIVING God.Nothing is impossible if you believe in his power to save. Believe in his desire to bring peace to the peacemaker.
It is an ongoing battle for the human allegiance is it not? We are not tired of doing good. God asks for what your soul truly wants. God provides the right resources so abiding is possible and staying committed is an act of love.
I love you always,
Kellie
