	Saint - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Saint is held up by the community as an example of how we all should act, and his or her life story is usually recorded for the edification of future generations.
		Sorting out exactly which Saints are ahistorical is difficult, because of the larger difficulty of proving a negative: the absence of independent records of a Saint's existence doesn't prove she or he never existed; indeed there are no specific records of the existence of many people who lived before the 20th century.
		Saints are believed to have a power of intercession with God (Allah), and thus the ability to perform miracles and to give power or blessings known as baraka.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Communion of Saints
		The communion of saints is the spiritual solidarity which binds together the faithful on earth, the souls in purgatory, and the saints in heaven in the organic unity of the same mystical body under Christ its head, and in a constant interchange of supernatural offices.
		All the saints so far mentioned were of foreign extraction; but the Anglo-Saxons soon extended their devotion to men who had been born and educated among them and who by their virtues and zeal in propagating Christianity had merited the honours of sanctity.
		The cause of the perversion by Protestants of the traditional concept of communion of saints is not to be found in the alleged lack of Scriptural and early Christian evidence in favour of that concept; well-informed Protestant writers have long since ceased to press that argument.

	Of Course Mormonism Is Christian - FARMS Review
		Nearly all Christians misunderstand parts of the Bible, even though they have read them in sincere faith, and Christ at the last day is unlikely to ask those who visit the widows and the fatherless in their affliction whether they also know and believe the writings of Habakkuk.
		The Latter-day Saints themselves claim that their church is a restoration of the original church Christ established in the time of the apostles.
		There are difficulties with the idea that Christianity is a different religion from Judaism, however often we may talk as though it is. The distinction is nowhere near as tidy as the distinction between, say, Christianity and Buddhism.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: St. Ambrose
		In him the magnanimity of the Roman patrician was tempered by the meekness and charity of the Christian saint.
		The saint was forced to refute the charge that he was depopulating the empire, by quaintly appealing to the young men as to whether any of them experienced any difficulty in finding wives.
		The tyrant received Ambrose unfavourably and, on the plea, very honourable to the Saint, that he refused to hold communion with the bishops who had compassed the death of Priscillian (the first instance of capital punishment inflicted for heresy by a Christian prince) dismissed him summarily from his court.

		Behold, that (after Saint Hilary) a man obtaineth not remission of his sins' if he believe not undoubtedly to obtain the same: and worthily, for he that doubteth (as Saint James saith) is like the waves of the sea, which are driven and moved by the winds.
