St. Paul wrote his letter to the Church folks in Ephesus and he addressed them as "saints." What is a saint? Well, it's not what you're thinking. A saint is defined as "most holy"--set apart from sin to God. When a person is In Christ, he or she is a saint--most holy. God calls us "to be holy" as He is holy. Impossible you say?
Christians are not perfect. If you know some, you know that's the truth. But in God's eyes, we are saints--most holy--we have the potential. In Christ, we are justified and have eternal life. By the power of his Holy Spirit we become sanctified . And by His grace, we can grow in holiness, and into the people He wants us to be.
We have a lot to live up to. It takes a lifetime.
