Most Christians Misuse The Bible More Than They Realize Today | Ed Lapiz

About this sermon

In this bold and eye-opening sermon, Ed Lapiz explains why many Christians today misuse Bible verses to judge, condemn, divide, control, shame, and hurt other people instead of showing the love, freedom, compassion, and grace taught by Jesus Christ. Through powerful biblical teaching, Ed Lapiz reveals why all Scripture must pass through the “Jesus Filter” before being interpreted, applied, or preached. Many Old Testament laws, cultural instructions, and context-specific teachings were originally written for ancient Israel or specific churches—not automatically for every person, culture, nation, and situation today. This sermon explains: Why Jesus fulfilled and transformed the law The difference between law and grace Why love is the highest commandment How religion becomes cruel without Jesus Why Scripture should never be used as a weapon The danger of legalism and judgmental Christianity How to interpret the Bible through love and compassion Why some biblical instructions were culture-specific The true meaning of freedom in Christ A powerful reminder that Jesus did not come to increase fear, condemnation, and suffering—but to set people free through truth, grace, love, healing, and spiritual maturity. #EdLapiz #BibleStudy #Grace #JesusFilter #ChristianLiving
