What does the Bible say about time and Jesus Christ?

The Bible, particularly in Ecclesiastes 3, teaches that there is a time for everything under heaven and that Jesus Christ, the eternal Word, is essential to understanding the purpose of time. Christ's existence precedes time, as He was with God in the beginning (John 1:1). Furthermore, the events that occur in time serve to fulfill God's purpose, which includes the incarnation and redemptive work of Christ. Everything is meant to glorify God and reflects His ultimate plan for salvation, as stated in Romans 8:28, where all things work together for good for those who are called according to His purpose.
