Description

Millions of Catholics believe that the saints are few special people that have reached the perfection of life, living as hermits, in poverty, in bacherlorhood, making miracles, wonders, and showing an angelical appearance. But the Bible has something different to tell us on this matter.

I disagree with what this book says. Yes it is valid to say that saints are holy people, but to condescend to the point of calling them flawed or average, only followers of God and nothing more is a great error. A saint is a person who lives for Christ, loves God and embraces the Holy spirit. A person who loves God more then themselves, who strives for the perfection of the inner man and thrives on practicing virtue, this is a true saint. Their are many people in the world who think that they love God, and there are even more who assume that they will make it into heaven with their flawed outlooks, but the reality is that there are teachings out in the world which explain precisely what a saint is. It's not as easy as you presume it is. God bless
