John 4:21 Context
19The woman saith vnto him, Sir, I perceiue that thou art a Prophet. 20Our fathers worshipped in this mountaine, and ye say, that in Hierusalem is the place where men ought to worship. 21Iesus saith vnto her, Woman, beleeue me, the houre commeth when ye shall neither in this mountaine, nor yet at Hierusalem, worship the Father. 22Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for saluation is of the Iewes. 23But the houre commeth, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit, and in trueth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.

Wesley's Notes for John 4:21
4:21 Believe me - Our Lord uses this expression in this manner but once; and that to a Samaritan. To his own people, the Jews, his usual language is, I say unto you. The hour cometh when ye - Both Samaritans and Jews, shall worship neither in this mountain, nor at Jerusalem - As preferable to any other place. True worship shall be no longer confined to any one place or nation.
