Quote of the Day- Sinners or Saints?

Quote

“We say, “Oh, we’re just sinners. Sinners saved by grace.” You want to get Biblical with the term “sinner”? In the New Testament that term is NEVER used for a Christian in relationship with God. “Sinner” is used for those who are unregenerate and “sinner” is used for those who are backslidden, double-minded. You know what we’re called? Saints. Not sinners. God doesn’t view you as a sinner. Yes, you struggle with sin, but you are not a sinner. You are a SAINT that struggles with sin. There’s a difference. You are not sinners. You are simply saints that are bound with sin in your flesh. But that will be overcome through the blood of Christ.”-Jason Cunninghammer

Paul often starts his letters with:

Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, To the saints and faithful brothers in Christ at Colossae: Grace to you and peace from God our Father.  Amen! (Colossians 1:1-2 ESV)
