Our pastor calls the members of our Church Saints, I like being called a Saint it makes me feel really good about myself. True believers are actually Saints of God, our past, present and future sins have all been paid for so we can fully enjoy life without any fear of punishment.

So all true believers are Saints, we shouldn't be afraid to proclaim that to the whole world.

after conversion,
we are no longer sinners according to the 'Biblical definition' -
it's not to say that we no longer sin, but we do not 'practice sin',
else we would crucify The Son of God afresh, and put Him to an open shame'...

the definition of 'sinner' is, 'not free from sin' -
ROMANS 6:18. Being then made free from sin, you became the servants of righteousness.

This is not grace but a law of nature since to the pure, all things are pure. However, nothing is pure to those who are enemies of our buddy Christ.

Christ is not your buddy, He is your judge :(

The buddies of Christ do not need to be judge because they are already in Jesus!
Sounds like you forgot that Jesus will still judge believers as well. We won't be condemned, but each one of us will receive a reward for the things we did as Christians. Those who done great things for the Lord will receive a great reward and those who done small things will get a small reward.

Jesus described this in the parable of the talents, He said the one who done great things will get a huge reward but the one who done little was called an unprofitable servant and he was cast out to where there was wailing and gnashing of teeth.

I didn't watch the video but a saint is a saved sinner.
All Saints start out as sinners and they would remain dead in their trespasses and sin if God didn't intervene and draw them to Himself.

Some of Gods greatest men were murderers and Adulterers, it just goes to show that God chooses to transform all kinds of people
