John 4:23-24

The hour cometh, etc. The time is at hand, says the Lord, when a worship of forms, or at holy places, will not meet the demands of the Father. "He must be worshiped" with the heart, in spirit and in truth. Spiritual worship can be offered in any land, wherever the soul can humble itself before God. God [is] a Spirit. Rather, "God is Spirit". This declaration is fundamental. Since he is Spirit, he must receive spiritual worship, and is everywhere present.
