[Larry Lucido]

Everyone who is in heaven is a saint

[MarDav]

All believers are saints.

[Biggirl]

Rather, saints in training in this life.

[Biggirl]

Those are Biblical miracles.

[Rides_A_Red_Horse]

A Saint is one who suffers for Christ. It doesn’t require a decree or declaration by a human organization.

[Salvation]

Are you familiar with the steps to sainthood?

What is more important, serving God of following man made traditions?

[Salvation]

These “would be” saints DID serve God.

[Rides_A_Red_Horse]

If they suffered in service to Christ they are Saints regardless of man made proclamations.

[Salvation]

Did you read any of the links? Do you still not understand the steps that the Catholic Church carefully takes in this process?

If someone has two miracles attributed to them and the Church has chosen not to declare them a Saint, are they or are they not a Saint?

A Saint is one who suffers for Christ. Follow the Creator, not a man made organization.

Here’s another view on Mother Teresa:

She makes for a great saint of religious indifferentism:

Of course I convert. I convert you to be a better Hindu or a better Muslim or a better Protestant. Once youve found God, its up to you to decide how to worship him. - Mother Teresa

Our parish received a letter from Mother Teresa which [in part] said:

“Each one of us is a co-worker of Chirst - we must labour hard to carry Him to the hearts where He has not yet been known and loved. But, unless we have Jesus, we cannot give Him; that is why we need the Eucharist. Spend as much time as possible in front of the Blessed Sacrament and He will fill you with His strength and His power. Tell Him, ‘Come to our hearts Lord and stay with us.’ Then you will become the instruments of His love, peace and joy.” -Excerpt from Mother Teresa letter, July 15, 1996
