"God is (a) Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth."—John iv. 24.
It is now generally understood and admitted that the true rendition of this text is, God is Spirit, rather than a Spirit. The old definition would seem to single him out from among other spirits, instead of ascribing to him the supremacy of Spirit, the position of the one and only Spirit. The difference is essential, and in the light of the true interpretation we wish to consider the text.
Right human reason universally assents to the proposition that there is but one all-wise, all-powerful, self-existent Cause. Jesus calls him Father. Spirit; one Spirit; one Life.
