08/02 John 4:19-25
“Sir,” the woman said, “you must be a prophet. 20 So tell me, why is it that you Jews insist that Jerusalem is the only place of worship, while we Samaritans claim it is here at Mount Gerizim, where our ancestors worshiped?” 21 Jesus replied, “Believe me, the time is coming when it will no longer matter whether you worship the Father here or in Jerusalem. 22 You Samaritans know so little about the one you worship, while we Jews know all about him, for salvation comes through the Jews. 23 But the time is coming and is already here when true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth. The Father is looking for anyone who will worship him that way. 24 For God is Spirit, so those who worship him must worship in spirit and in truth.”
WHY?
Why questions are always a ploy of our enemy the EVIL ONE. Don’t get side tracked worrying about why. Read the Bible. Do what you know. Serve the best you can. Trust the Lord. Always remember that God is always good! Always without exception God is good. Praise the Lord and worship Him.
