Worship of the true God is not limited to a certain people group.
Worship of the true God is not wrapped up in right theology or philosophy.
John 4:22 http://bible.us/john4.22.nlt
"In the last analysis, Christianity is not a philosophy which we accept; it is not a theory to which we give allegiance; it is not something which is thought out; it is not something which is intellectually derived at. It is a personal response to Jesus Christ. It is the answer of the heart to the magnet of Christ. It is an allegiance and a love which a man gives because his heart will not allow him to do anything else." William Barclay
