What does the Bible say about being called saints?
Answered in 2 sources
The Bible teaches that believers are called saints, set apart and sanctified by Christ's finished work.
The term 'saints' refers to those whom God has called and made holy through the sacrifice of Christ. In Romans 1:7, Paul emphasizes that he is writing to 'all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints.' This highlights the idea that sanctification is a work of God before and after salvation, reinforcing the belief that no one is born a saint but becomes one through the new birth in Christ. As believers, we are positioned in Christ and made holy because of His righteousness, fulfilling the call to be set apart for God's purposes.
