The readings for the Sunday of all Saints teach us what we need to do to be "saints" We are ALL called to be saints. The Gospel tells us to confess The Lord before all men, love God above all things, and take up our cross and deny our passions. the Epistle, which we focus on, has two very important phrases, which we look at in detail: " through faith" and "with patience". If we understand these two, we fulfill all in order to be saints.
