How do we know we are saints according to the Bible?
Answered in 1 source
Believers are called saints because of their faith in Christ Jesus and the grace of God, as stated in Philippians 4:21.
The term 'saint' refers to those who are called and set apart by God through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Philippians 4:21 states, 'Salute every saint in Christ Jesus,' indicating that true sainthood is found only in relation to Christ. This distinction highlights that being a saint is not a matter of religious titles conferred posthumously, but rather a present reality for all believers who are justified and made holy through Christ's righteousness. It emphasizes the grace and mercy of God that calls each believer a saint, underscoring their identity as part of the body of Christ.
