1. Love God
According to the scripture(john 3:16), for God so love the world that He gave His only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him shall not perish but have everlasting live."
This scripture tells us that God loves us very much, He sent Jesus to die for us so that the sins you and I have committed will be forgiven. I think the least you could do in return is to love, respect and believe in him no matter what.
2. FOLLOW THE 10 COMMANDMENTS
The 10 God's commandments:
- I am the Lord thy God and thou shalt not have other gods before me.
- Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
- Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain.
- Remember the Sabbath Day to keep it holy.
- Honor thy Father and Mother.
- Thou shalt not kill.
- Thou shalt not commit adultery.
- Thou shalt not steal.
- Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.
- Thou shalt not covet.
To live as a saint you must follow this 10 commandments of God. Those are God's standards for living.
3. ASK FOR FORGIVENESS OF SIN AND TRY NOT TO SIN AGAIN
Our heavenly Father is a merciful God, so anytime you unconsciously or knowingly break any of his commandments which literally means that you've sinned, ensure to ask for forgiveness from God and be really sorry it, also try not to sin again.
4. ALWAYS PRAY
It is said that "Prayer" is the master key. Even Jesus started with prayer and also ended with prayer. Its very important pray always even in your hard times or in time of troubles but your first prayer before any other thing should be forgiveness of sin especially when you know for sure that you haven't committed any sin before that moment 'coz sin can also be committed unconsciously or unknowingly. Pray always.
5. READ YOUR BIBLE
Since Holy Bible contains the word and wisdom from God. Reading your bible makes you know more about God and also brings you closer to Him. The word of the lord has rescued many saints from harms and troubles. As a saint, it is necessary to stick to your bible always.
6. BE HUMBLE AND KIND TO PEOPLE
Always show compassion for those in need or the less privileged. This may be kind-of obvious but showing kindness to everyone is a sign that you are truly a saint because its what all saints do.
7. DO NOT DEPEND ON MATERIAL THINGS
Wealth and fortunes are all classified as things of the world, the funniest part is that they all fades away. As saint you must reject all material wealth just like St. Francis did or give them to those in need or the less privileged.
8. GO TO CHURCH!
Going to church means you are going to visit God, so you mustn't let anything draw you back.
9. SPREAD THE GOSPEL
Tell others about God Almighty and inspire them to believe in Him, if possible, Build a sanctuary for them come and to worship and praise their heavenly father, God.
Final Words
The scripture says: "he that abide in Me and I in him, shall bear much fort fruit for without Me you can do nothing." If you abide in Him and His Words abide in you, you will ask what we desire, and it shall be done for you.
Particularly, that the verse declares that the Believer should not perish. So to be a saint you need to follow the ways of Christ. Never go against any of God's commandments.
