John 4:21 — Community Reflections

JOHN 4:21 — KING JAMES VERSION 1 0

“Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.”

Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshippers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth; for they are the kind of worshippers the Father is looking for. — the paradox 'is coming and has now come' indicates that the eschaton has arrived in Jesus' person. True worship (aletheia) requires Spirit (pneuma) and truth: internal, authentic, Spirit-enabled response rather than external observance. The Father actively seeks (zetei) such worshippers, suggesting divine desire for genuine covenant relationship.
