Not a terribly common Hanja character but an easy one to recognize in Hangul is 聖 (성인 성). It stands for 'Holy'.
성경 (聖經)
the Bible, holy book
구약성경 (舊約聖書)
*the Old Testament
신약성경 (新約聖書)
the New Testament
성가 (聖歌)
church hymns, sacred songs
성수 (聖水)
holy water
성인 (聖人)
saint, holy person
성경 용어 (聖經 用語)
Biblical language
성화 (聖火)
the Olympic torch, holy fire
성단 (聖壇)
a pulpit, altar, shrine
성물
holy item, thing
영성체
holy communion, Eucharist
*Don't be goofy and assume that 신약 means "foot medicine". The correct hanja are 新 (새 신) and 舊 (옛 구)
**There's lots, and I do mean, lots of 성 out there so be careful. One of them is 星 that stands for "star" as in "three stars" 삼성 (三聖) or "star cluster" 성단 (星團). Another is 性 which stands for "sex" as in "gender" 성별 (性別) and "personality" 성격 (性格)

One Response to “성 (聖)”
I’m from West Texas, and I was among a few others victim who lost hard earned money to a Forex Scam, I had invested in a broker firm to the extent that I could not afford it because this broker firm kept demanding more money whenever it is time to withdraw profits. I was lucky to have detected the foul play on time, unfortunately I had already lost $931,795 worth of Bitcoin, Ethereum to this broker firm.
After going to the authorities with no progress whatsoever, my lawyer directed me to a recovery agent who took over my case discreetly and began to trace and follow where the money has been laundered to, fortunately for me, this recovery team was able to trace and recover a huge chunk of my money, through blockchain technology. I was very pleased with how they handled my case and helped me gained my confidence back. Their contact information is Morphohack@CyberServices.Com
