What is the gospel? (Note: I am not asking because I don't know).

You can't know what Jesus propitiates if you don't know what He propitiated for at the cross. That's quite obvious. I simply summarized the most important elements of what makes the gospel "good news."
Did not Jesus make it clear right from the beginning of His ministry that the good news was the Kingdom taking away authourity from man and returning it to it's rightful place, with God.

How does one go about that?

We don't. God will do this regardless of whether we want Him to or not. But those in favour of His move will no doubt first be aware of why it is a good idea, why we are undeserving of continuing on as we have done since the Garden. Any wonder Jesus' first followers were the oppressed?
