What does the Bible say about being a saint?

Answered in 2 sources

Every believer is described as a saint in the Bible, meaning one set apart for holy use in Christ.

The term 'saint' is used 98 times in the Bible to describe believers, reinforcing the idea that every believer is set apart and made holy in Christ Jesus. This concept is central to understanding our identity in Christ; we are not merely forgiven sinners, but we are declared saints by God's grace. This distinction is essential because it emphasizes our position before God, showing that we are accepted in the Beloved, and called to live a life reflective of this holy status.
