Quite a few people now have given a real reason why this is.

Yes, but how many knew of it before they posted their initial responses?

I also remember the first poster to mention why also indicated it may not always be true 100% of the time.
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, purifies us from all sin.
