Process of filtration

“***Process of filtration***”

Filtration is a process by which any material is passed through a certain device to remove unwanted elements in it.
>> Filtration happens every day around the world.
It occurs both in nature and in engineered systems.

For example…
… in many living bodies (including humans), renal filtration removes wastes from the blood
… in water treatment and sewage treatment, undesirable elements are removed by absorption into a filter medium

Every filtration has three basic components:
>> The Feed: The original material with the presence of unwanted elements
>> The Filter: The mechanism/device that does the cleansing
>> The Filtrate: The matter that comes after the process

Our Life as a Christian is also a “process of filtration”

And has three components as well
>> The Feed: Our lives - with our own weaknesses and sinful tendencies
>> The Filter: Jesus, the Crucified Lord - Who Cleanses us
>> The Filtrate: Our life as a Disciple of Christ – lived in holiness and with a sense of mission

Are we willing to allow the “FEED” of our lives to encounter the “FILTER”…
… so that we can emerge as pure and holy “FILTRATE?”
