What does it mean to receive one another as saints?

Answered in 1 source

Receiving one another as saints means treating fellow believers with the love and honor due to Christ Himself.

In Romans 16:2, Paul instructs believers to receive Phoebe in the Lord, which signifies a deep unity in faith. When believers accept one another, they recognize their shared identity in Christ and act in accordance with their calling as saints. This call to hospitality and support embodies the spirit of the gospel, reminding us that our actions toward one another are ultimately actions toward Christ. The grace we have received should compel us to embody that same grace in our relationships.
