A Word In Due Season
Apostle David Wale Feso

The Church Are Saints Of God.
“To the church of God which is at Corinth, to those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all who in every place call on the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours:” 1 Corinthians 1:2 (NKJV)
The Church refers to the saints of God. A saint is not just referring to those who died in Christ, that is the beliefs of many. That is why the Bible ought to be the rule book for all matters of faith and practice.
1 Timothy 3:15 (NKJV) says, “But if I am delayed, I write so that you may know how you ought to conduct yourself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.”
What does the word 'Saint' mean? Saint is from the Greek word 'Hagios'; this means holy ones, sacred, pure, consecrated, etc. It refers to those who have been separated to God. When you got born again the Holy Spirit sanctified you to God; in other words, you are no longer your own. You are holy and you are a saint.
Saints are not dead people, they are alive today and believe in Jesus Christ. Though there are some saints in heaven but there are some saints in the earth like you if you are a child of God.
According to our opening scripture, as a Saint in Christ Jesus you are sanctified to God. That means you are set apart and separated to God. You are no longer your own. You are now God's property. You cannot live any way you want to live and do whatever you want to do because you are a Saint.
When you know you are a Saint your behavior will fall in line because revelation governs behavior. Your behavior is a reflection of your self-perception. Until your self-perception is changed by revelation your behavior will not change.
