Saint
Here is an interesting tidbit.
The word 'saint' is used in the NT 91 times to refer to Christians, but it is used this way only in the plural; the word 'saint' is never used of an individual believer, only of believers as a group. To speak of Saint Matthew, or Saint John, is unbiblical.
The word 'saints' is the translation of the adjective hagios when it stands alone, 'holy [ones].'
