  • Is there anything common among the uncorrupt saints that can let us pinpoint the requirements to merit uncorruption? Any theories as to what is on that list, or is it a somewhat arbitrary grace given to the best of saints?
    "Be you therefore perfect, as also your heavenly Father is perfect."
    "Seek first the kingdom of Heaven..."
    "Every idle word that men shall speak, they shall render an account for it in the day of judgment"

    It would be nice to study all these to find the common factor. Not in my lifetime, unless....

    Some are not canonised yet.
    Help of Christians, guard our land from assault or inward stain,
    Let it be what God has planned, His new Eden where You reign.
