Context
In John 4:21 should be read within the flow of its chapter and the larger argument of In John.
Common Interpretations
Under Israel's covenant, people were told to appear before the LORD at the place He chose (Deuteronomy 16:16). In John 4:21–24, a Samaritan woman asks Jesus about the right place to approach God. Jesus says the coming hour will not be bound to her mountain or Jerusalem, and speaks of approaching the Father in spirit and truth. His answer is about the Father and the end of that geographic dispute; it is not a template for a Christian service.
Believers still meet. The shift in place does not cancel the call to gather, serve, and encourage one another. It means that a building cannot be treated as the thing that makes God's people His church. The earliest Christian communities and how their meetings developed are the subject of the next study.
