What do you know?

 

You worship what you do not know; 

we worship what we know, 

for salvation is from the Jews. 

John 4:22

At the Well Again

There was a Tweet on the 17th by an author I had not heard of before. Nadia Bolz-Weber. A quick search of her reveals she loves the unloved and cares a great deal about people. 

Here's what she wrote:

We all come back from the grocery store to the sight of Jesus just chatting it up at the well with Steve Bannon. Jesus is the worst.

I have to say, this made my heart glow. She got a lot of responses. Most I loved. Some didn't get it. I do. I so get it.

Well

Jesus said to her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never be thirsty again. The water that I will give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.”

John 4:13-14

John 4:26

Words of Jesus

"Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, 

but you say that in Jerusalem is the place where people ought to worship.” 

 

Jesus said to her, 

"Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when neither 

on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father. 

You worship what you do not know; we worship what we know, 

for salvation is from the Jews."

John 4:20-22

 

 

Messiah

The woman said to him, 

“I know that Messiah is coming 

(he who is called Christ). 

When he comes, he will tell us all things.” 

Jesus said to her, “I who speak to you am he.”

John 4:25-26 

Well

He needed to go through Samaria. John 4:4

 

What if He came through your town,

to your well,

just to find you?
