What does it mean to redeem the time for Christ?

Redeeming the time involves recognizing the fleeting nature of our earthly existence and making the most of every opportunity to serve Christ and advance His kingdom. As emphasized in the sermon, Mary’s act of anointing Jesus was a deliberate use of her time and resources that honored Him. This call to action is echoed in Ephesians 5:15-16, where believers are urged to walk wisely and make the best use of their time. Christians are encouraged to seize moments for good works that glorify God, fostering a sense of urgency in sharing the gospel and serving one another.
