Gather my saints together unto me; those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice. - Psalms 50:4-5

So, all the "saints" you meet have made a covenant "by sactifice?"

Yes indeed they have:

And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins: But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God; From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool. For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified. [Whereof] the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before, This [is] the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them; And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more. Now where remission of these [is, there is] no more offering for sin. - Hebrews 10:11-18

And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. - John 3:14-15

Saints are only saints because of The Sacrifice, foreshadowed before Christ by the sacrificial system and realized in Christ.
