The Simplicity of Christ's Sublime Disclosures
J. C. Jones, D. D. John 4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. taught the maxim to his disciples and scrupulously observed it himself, "Never wear the types of the gods upon your rings." That is to say, do not publish your highest and most sacred truths to the ignorant and uninitiated. Jesus Christ acts here, however, on a totally different principle; in the fulness of His heart He makes to this poor sinful woman some of His sublimest revelations. (J. C. Jones, D. D.)
