There is no such thing as a saint with a capital S and one with a lowercase s with God.

His people are His saints and those who are born again know who they belong to and are called saints.

Your version of sainthood with a capital S is only another of fallen man’s attempts to elevate himself above others. And, again, I say that when you are filled with the Holy Spirit this truth will be made known to you.

Capital "S" saints are simply saints that are formally recognized by the Church.

Intercession of the Saints

If you're concerned about un-biblical practices, you should know that Luther's dogma of "the Bible alone," as the sole rule of faith, isn't in the Bible.

Not by Scripture Alone.

Making *Saints* of people is being respecters of persons, a sin according to James, the author of the Catholic’s favorite book of the Bible.
