1. Holiness -- The holy people -- Some examples -- The spirit of the saints -- 2. The veneration of the saints -- Origin and development -- Canonization -- The roman martyrology -- The relics of the saints -- Saints at work in the church -- The history of the saints -- The hidden saints.
Today the saint, as he or she has come to be understood, is essentially a man or woman of heroic virtue due to an intimate union with God. The definition of what this holiness is, as it appears in the Scriptures, is one of the many facets of sainthood which are discussed by the author in this volume. The book also contains the acts and the accounts of lives of later saints for which there is full documentation, together with description of the Church's canonization process and the theology of the Communion of Saints.
