New Catholic Bible

5 Through him we have received grace and our apostolic commission to proclaim the obedience of faith among all the Gentiles for the sake of his name. 6 And you are among those who are called to belong to Jesus Christ.

7 To all of you who are God’s beloved in Rome and called to be saints:[a] grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Footnotes

  1. Romans 1:7 Saints: the Greek meaning of the word accentuates the idea of “holiness.” All Christians are saints insofar as they are “set apart” for God and are being made increasingly “holy” by the Holy Spirit (see 1 Cor 1:2; 1 Thes 4:7). The Christian community regarded its members as made holy through Baptism (Rom 6:22; 15:16; 1 Cor 6:11; Eph 5:26f).
