John 4:16-21

16At this, Jesus said, “Go, call your husband and come back.”

17The woman answered, “I do not have a husband.” Jesus said to her, “You have correctly said, ‘I do not have a husband’;

18for you have had five husbands, and the man you are now living with is not your husband. You have said this truthfully.”

19The woman said to Him, “Sir, I see that You are a prophet.

20Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, but you Jews say that the place where one ought to worship is in Jerusalem [at the temple].”

21Jesus replied, “Woman, believe Me, a time is coming [when God’s kingdom comes] when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.
