called to be saints

1 Corinthians 1:2
... to those who are ... called to be saints ...

God called people, it says in Scriptures many are called, it also says some are chosen. We don't need to spend time debating the words or the intentions of God. He usually reveal to us clearly what He wants us to know. From New Testament times, believers of Yshua have been referred to as saints. With all the imperfection, the ability to continue to sin, believers are still regarded as saints, because that is who we are in God's sights, those who are redeemed by the blood of Yshua. There is nothing we can do to earn this status from the true God, very unlike all the other religions which are false. On our part, having received what we don't deserve from God, we know that our only right response is to surrender our will to Him, let Him mould us to become the better person He intends for us, and being ready to help others when He brings people to us.
