Two Letters of the ABC's of Worship

I had previously promised that I would post two letters from the ABC's of worship, as heard in this morning's sermon.

The two letters that I chose were E and K, which represent "Everywhere" and "Knowledge." Both can be found in selected verses of the Gospel of John, chapter 4.

John 4:19-24 (English Standard Version)

19The woman said to him, "Sir, I perceive that(A) you are(B) a prophet. 20(C) Our fathers worshiped on(D) this mountain, but you say that(E) in Jerusalem is(F) the place where people ought to worship." 21Jesus said to her, (G) "Woman, believe me,(H) the hour is coming when(I) neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father. 22(J) You worship what you do not know;(K) we worship what we know, for(L) salvation is from the Jews. 23But(M) the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father(N) in spirit and(O) truth, for the Father(P) is seeking such people to worship him. 24God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth."
