Who are the "saints" of God according to the Bible?

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 

In the Holy Bible, all the church, the elect of God, those who are born again, are called "the saints."

 

A few of the many scriptures in Bible showing this are as follows:

 

Romans 7:1 To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

 

Romans 8:27 And HE that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because HE maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

 

Romans 15:25  But now I go unto Jerusalem to minister unto the saints (the church).

 

I Cor. 14:33  For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.

 

II Cor. 9:12 For the administration of this service not only supplieth the want of the saints, but is abundant also by many thanksgivings unto God;

 

Heb. 6:10 For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward HIS name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.

Jude v. 3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints (the church).

The "saints" are the entire church of Jesus Christ.
