Time and money are two very familiar concepts for us all and we often hear the phrase “time is money”.
Of course, it doesn’t mean that time by itself is money (no one is going to get rich because they grew up in age and it’s been many years since they were born!) but that the proper use of time – even better, the right and wise use of the 24-hour – undoubtedly yields better profits to the worker, to the one who is working, in opposition to the inactive citizen who has not earned anything or even lost something, because they had to spend their existing stocks.
The concept of the utilization of our time is not only of commercial significance, but also of importance to the issues of active faith in the living God, elements which the first Christians had discovered and left behind in the Holy Texts of the Old and New Testaments.
