Jesus paid the debt for my sins. NOT Mary. NOT the #PedoPope. NOT Saint Peter. NOT any Vatican canonized saint.ANYONE and EVERY ONE who has accepted Christ as King and as Lord and Savior is a SAINT.According to the Bible, a saint is any believer in Jesus Christ who has been "set apart" (sanctified) by God, rather than a person who has achieved an extraordinary level of holiness or been canonized.Identity, Not Just Behavior: Saints are not a special class of deceased Christians, but all redeemed believers, including those in the early church who faced significant problems (e.g., in 1 Cor. 1:2).Position in Christ: Saints are those sanctified in Christ Jesus (1 Cor. 1:2) and "in Christ".Plural Usage: In Scripture, "saints" is used 67 times in the plural compared to once in the singular, indicating it describes the community of believers.
