The Bible refers to God's true church as being made up of only those who are saints (1 Corinthians 14:33; Revelation 14:12); those who are sanctified (1 Corinthians 1:2; Jude 1); those who are established in the faith and truth (Acts 16:5; 1 Timothy 3:15); those who are subject unto, or who submit self to, Christ (Ephesians 5:24); those who are joined to Christ (Ephesians 5:31-32); and finally those who are in Christ (Galatians 1:22; 1 Thessalonians 1:1).
Biblia hueleza Kanisa la kweli la Mungu kuwa limejengwa na wale wote walio watakatifu (1 Kor 14:33; Ufu 14:12); wale waliotakaswa (1 Kor 1:2; Yud 1); wale walioimarishwa katika imani na kweli (Mdo 16:5; 1 Tim 3:15); wale walio watii, au wanaojikana nafsi, kwa Kristo (Efe 5:24); wale waliounganishwa kwa Kristo (Efe 5:31-32); na hatimaye wale walio katika Kristo (Gal 1:22; 1 Thes 1:1).
