What does it mean to be a saint?

Answered in 2 sources

To be a saint means to be set apart and holy in God's eyes, justified through Christ's work (Ephesians 2:19).

In biblical terms, a saint refers to one who is consecrated and set apart for God's purposes. In Ephesians 2:19, Paul affirms that all believers are saints, which underscores their holiness as perceived by God. This does not mean that believers are sinless; rather, it reflects their standing before God due to Christ's redemptive work. God views every believer through the righteousness of Christ, declaring them holy and justified. This identity as saints serves as a foundational truth for Christians, indicating their new nature and position in Christ.
