What does it mean that the church is a steward of God's mysteries?

Answered in 1 source

Being a steward of God's mysteries means that the church is entrusted with the gospel and responsible for proclaiming Christ's truth, as stated in 1 Corinthians 4:1.

The concept of stewardship outlined in 1 Corinthians 4:1 signifies that the church has been given the sacred responsibility to guard and proclaim the gospel. As stewards, church members are not to preach their own ideas or works but to faithfully communicate the unchanging truths of Christ and what He has accomplished for His people. This entails not only preserving the integrity of the message but also living it out in a way that reflects Christ’s character. The church must approach its calling with humility and diligence, recognizing that the success of its mission relies solely on faithful adherence to God’s Word.
