You: We are called to be Saints.When is your canonization ceremony?
I see you aren't all that knowledgeable about the Letters of the NT, right? In Romans 1:7 Paul says we are "called saints (agiois)" - not TO BE called saints. That is a translators addition to the text: those two little terms do not appear in any of the manuscripts of the NT. Look at both letters to the Corinthians, verses 1 or 2; Eph. 1:1; Phil. 1:1, and many other places. All Christians were called "saints"!
Just to clarify your understanding a little :-)
AMEN! AMEN!
However, to those addicted to
POMP AND CIRCUMSTANCE
Nothing is “REAL”
until it’s gilded in gold; fossilized in !!!!TRADITION!!!! and ritualized away from all substantive meaning into a robotic exercise in futility.
NO!Mr Knowledgeable! When I see people walking around calling themselves Saints it shows lack of humility-If someone else wants to call you a Saint so be it
Saints ALWAYS show humility-They don't run around saying "look at me I'm a Saint!"
I wish you a Blessed day!
