In every trade there are tools that that help get the job done. However, using the wrong tool at a certain time in a project can cause damage rather than producing a finished product. The same is true in our Christian walk; we have tools! If we don’t correctly use our tools we can spiritually damage people.

Ephesians 6:18-20 CSB
Our greatest tool that we have is the gospel!
It convicts and changes our lives
Notice the Gospel is the most versatile tool we have because it deals with us and it works on others as well
The Gospel is like a hammer
The Gospel is like a drill
The word of God can be like the reciprocating saw
Jeremiah 23:29-32 CSB
Hebrews 4:12-13 CSB
Our use of boldness
Boldness and the gospel coupled together is a powerful combination
But how you present the word of God or the gospel will ultimately effect how it applied
We treat boldness sometimes like the hammer
1. The word of God can be the hammer
2. It can be the drill
3. And it can be the reciprocating saw
We must recognize that we are just a vessel that can be broken
