You are a saint.

You are a saint.
- Pastor Ashish Mathews

1 Corinthians 1:2
to the assembly of God that is in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus, called saints, with all those calling upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ in every place--both theirs and ours:

When you hear the word 'saint' people think it's only for those who lived a holy life, did many charitable works and made a lot of sacrifices.

This verse tells us, if you are in Christ, you are sanctified and you are called as a saint. You are a saint right now. The moment you got born again, the moment you came in Christ, you became a saint. The word 'saint' means 'set apart ones'. Set apart from sin. Set apart from the ways of the world. Set apart for God. Set apart for His call. Set apart to live holy and a life that pleases Him.

You are a saint - as holy, as righteous, as pure, as blamless and as clean as Jesus Himself. Every member in the body of Christ is a saint. Your faith in the works and blood of Jesus has made you a saint. Saints, what a great God we serve! Jesus is Lord! The best is yet to come!

"In Christ, I am sanctified and I am a saint. I know who I am. I am what God says I am. I am set apart for God. Hallelujah!"
