What is a saint? A Saint tries to do what the Savior did, keeps His commandments, is baptized and confirmed, and makes the temple a goal. A Saint stays away from evil conduct and harmful pathways. A Saint is kind to others and helps them. If we follow the Savior, we will have the Spirit in our lives and feel the joy of being worthy Latter-day Saints. A Saint loves God and his or her neighbors. A Saint loves the Savior and follows His teachings. Elder Quentin L. Cook, Ensign, NOv. 2003, 95-96
