John 4:21-23 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain,

nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. Ye worship ye know not what:

we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true

worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father

seeketh such to worship him.
