The other day I went into the auto repair store to get a new air filter for the car. With my bizarre sense of humor, I noticed on the box for the air filter, that it said that it was 90% efficient (see picture). In my bizarre way of thinking, I wondered if that meant that it was 10% inefficient. I asked the clerk if he thought that meant that it was 10% inefficient. To his credit, he quickly understood my strange sense of humor, and said he wasn't quite sure. I said to him that if the filter is working at 90% efficiency, it's still doing a lot better than I am. It may be as much as 50 or 60% more efficient than I am. As I walked out I was thinking about the fact that there are so few things that are 100% efficient. I am so grateful for the blood of Jesus Christ that is 100% efficient for forgiving my sin and making me acceptable to God, propitiating the wrath of God, and bringing me into an experience of the love of God by the Holy Spirit.
"But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin."
