You are partly right but Paul and other writers of the Bible call their followers and believers “saints” and they were alive and well here on Earth. In other words, YOU are a saint, according to the Bible.

I may be shaky on this one but I believe the third tier of communion of saints is the
Church Militant,The believers on earth battling sin and the devil.
We don't become saints until after we have fought our battle.
