How do we know the Gospel is more powerful than politics?

The Gospel is presented in Scripture as the power of God for salvation, unlike political actions that may only yield temporary results (Romans 1:16).
Scripture establishes the Gospel as the transformative power of God unto salvation, as seen in Romans 1:16. Unlike political frameworks, which can only effect external change, the Gospel reaches the heart and convicts individuals of their sins through the work of the Holy Spirit (John 16:8). This means that genuine moral reform must occur at the heart level, facilitated through spiritual means rather than political ones. The New Testament further reinforces the notion that political activism cannot replace the deeper, spiritual work that the Gospel accomplishes in the lives of individuals and communities.
