"24 God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”
The truth is what we know but cannot see based on faith.
The Spirit you know we cannot see based on faith.
Christ is the Spirit Who lives in the born-again believer.
Christ is the Truth Who lives in the born-again believer.
Our worship is not based on what we do, rituals or mantras, it is based on Christ Who lives in us.
John 14:6
"6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."
John 15:5
"5 I am the vine, you are the branches; the one who remains in Me, and I in him bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing."
Romans 8:34
"Christ Jesus is He who died, but rather, was raised, who is at the right hand of God, who also intercedes for us."
1 John 2:1 "1 My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous;"
We can do nothing in and of ourselves that pleases God, only Christ in us pleases Him and we are accepted because we trusted in Christ and He does the work in us. He gets the glory.
Hebrews 1:3
"And He is the radiance of His glory and the exact representation of His nature and upholds all things by the word of His power. When He had made purification of sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high,"
It is good to remind one another that Jesus Christ is the essence of His Own Word, to negate the Bible, His Word, is to negate Him.
