When Christ encounters St. Photini, the Samaritan woman at the well, she poses a question to Him about the worship of the Samaritans and the Jews. His answer shocks her, and should be a great caution to us. In declaring that the time is now come when the true worshipers of the Father will worship God in Spirit and in Truth, he declares an end to the false religions of both the Samaritans and the Jews. Declaring that the time is now, Christ presages the coming of His Church that He will entrust to his disciples. In this day when numerous sects proclaim themselves Christian and "finding one's own path" appeals to the egoistic milieu of modern culture, how many Christians find themselves in false worship in the name of personal preference and cultural relevance? And how can Orthodox Christians claim to love their neighbors, yet sit by silently as they pursue the cafeteria "christianity" of the modern age?
