Famous quotes containing the word saints:

    The saints with their beau-peers whole worlds outwear,
    And things unseen do see, and things unheard do hear.
    Giles Fletcher, The Younger (1585–1623)

    For all the saints who from their labors rest,
    Who, to the world their steadfast faith confessed,
    your name, O Jesus, be forever blessed
    Alleluia!
    William Walsham How (1823–1897)

    The gifts he gave were that some would be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, some pastors and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, until all of us come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to maturity, to the measure of the full stature of Christ.
    Bible: New Testament, Ephesians 4:11.
