I always felt the Saints were simply powerful Mages, that were given a title because they had far greater power than even some powerful ones in guilds. The reason, to prevent them from turning against the continent of Ishgar. I mean look at God Serena, he was powerful yes. But his personality left a lot to be desired. He on a whim left it, when to the Empire and helped August, and Jacob destroy all the guilds in Bosco. I felt the Saints were Mages that the Magic Council thought could be the biggest threats to the continent. So to keep them from turning into threats gave them titles that made them famous.

But I always felt the Saints should have been, the continents last line of defense after the Rune Knights against threats against the nations of Ishgar.
