Philippians 4:21 “Salute every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren which are with me greet you. 22 All the saints salute you, chiefly they that are of Caesar’s household.”
The word “saint” is the noun form of the word “sanctified”; which in this context, means those who have been ‘made holy’ by God and ‘set apart’ for His service. Paul seems to be referring, even more specifically, to those who are faithfully obeying the Lord’s call to service. So, in closing his Epistle to the beloved Church at Philippi, Paul asks the Ministers of the Church to “Salute” or give his greeting of great love and respect to “every saint in Christ Jesus” that was at Philippi. Furthermore, Paul conveys a warm salutation from “All the saints” that were with him in Rome to “every saint” at Philippi. Thus, Paul is highlighting a most tender and sincere love between the two Churches; for, they were warmly bound together by “the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost” (II Corinthians 13:14). There is a holy blessedness among “the saints” in “Christ Jesus” our Lord that cannot be matched by the world around us!
