"You became followers of us, and of the Lord." (1 Thessalonians 1:6)
A sermon in preparation for All Saints Day.
Numerous times, St Paul tells his disciples to imitate the example they have seen in him. Further, he even states that those believers who were most zealous are themselves an example for others. This is a biblical foundation for our devotion to the saints! If we can imitate St Paul and study his example while he is alive, how much more must we do this after he has gained his heavenly reward? And this applies to the other saints as well!
We imitate the saints so that we might more perfectly imitate the Lord!
