John 4:23-25

Expanded Bible

²³ [^LBut] The ·time [^Lhour; see 4:21] is coming when the true worshipers will worship the Father in ·spirit [or the Spirit] and truth, and that time ·is here already [has now come; is now here]. You see, the Father too is actively seeking such people to worship him. ²⁴ God is ·spirit [Spirit], and those who worship him must worship in ·spirit [Spirit] and truth.”

²⁵ The woman said to him, “I know that the Messiah is coming.” (Messiah is the One called Christ [^Cboth Hebrew Mashiach and Greek Christos mean “Anointed One”; see 1:41].) “When ·the Messiah [^Lthat one] comes, he will ·explain [report; announce] everything to us.”
