The Gospel is good news, we should act like it and take that Gospel into the world and change the world by the preaching of the Gospel. The only way to change hearts and minds, the only way to change society is by God working through the preaching of His word.
Don't limit the Gospel to "gettin' folks saved," teach them to observe all things He has commanded us. Bring the Law of God to bear upon society and to bear upon our problems in this world. In classical confessional Reformed theology there are three uses of the Law 1) pedagogical/school master 2) civil and moral 3) normative, these categories are useful in understanding how to transform society, at the very least restrain evil.
Our Lord describe the Kingdom as growing slowly over time. It grows like a mustard seed and like leaven and His Kingdom will continue to grow until He returns.
God's Law or man's secular made-up atheistic law?
Yours in the Lord,
