 The perfect grace of God by Christ, the perfect peace of man, and that with God; it was this which he brought in the gospel and in his heart. These are the true conditions of God’s relationship with man, and that of man with God. (Romans 1:1-17 by J.N. Darby)
 A saint is a "set apart one" or a "sanctified one"….The text should simply read, "called saints." The truth is that if we are believers on the Lord Jesus Christ, we are saints-and are such by being called by God! It is not something we hope to be, but something that the Word of God says we are by the grace of God. (Opening Salutations: Romans 1:1-17 by B. Anstey)

"Called saints" is ambiguous in English, but the sense is that they are saints by the calling of God. The Greek implies that they are already saints, not called to be so.
