John 4:20
Next Verse

Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.

Note 4 at Jn. 4:20: Notice how this woman tried to dodge the attention Jesus had given her personal life by bringing up this theological question. Her lifestyle would suggest that worshipping God was not a high priority of hers, so the place and method of worship would certainly not be of that much importance to her. The woman was just like millions of people today who are deceived by Satan into being more occupied with theological questions about God than they are about their personal relationship with God. Jesus brought her right back to her personal need by saying that the place and method of worship was not what God was after. Rather, He seeks to be worshipped in the hearts of men.
