John 4:10

John 4:

Worship of the true God is not confined to a place.

Worship of the true God is not limited to a certain people group.

Worship of the true God is not wrapped up in right theology or philosophy.

Worship of the true God is relationship with the true God.

John 4:22

"In the last analysis, Christianity is not a philosophy which we accept; it is not a theory to which we give allegiance; it is not something which is thought out; it is not something which is intellectually derived at. It is a personal response to Jesus Christ. It is the answer of the heart to the magnet of Christ. It is an allegiance and a love which a man gives because his heart will not allow him to do anything else." William Barclay

John 4:

“I could more easily contain Niagara Falls in a teacup than I could comprehend the wild, uncontainable love of God.” Brennan Manning
