“See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,

Redeeming the time, because the days are evil” (Ephesians

5:15-16 KJV). What does the KJV mean when it speaks about

redeeming the time? In the NET, Ephesians 5:15-16 reads as

follows: “Therefore be very careful how you live - not as unwise

but as wise, taking advantage of every opportunity, because the

days are evil.”

So how can we redeem the time? We can stop binge watching

TV. We can get rid of our fiction addictions. We can stop surfing

the internet. And we can replace bad habits with good ones. We

can schedule time for prayer. We can read our Bibles. We can

share the gospel on social media or in person.

Some people tell me they just can’t find time to read their

Bibles. If you can’t find time to read the Bible, then listen to the

Word on your computer or your smartphone. Listen to it as you

drive or jog or do your chores. It’s important. And it’s important

that you do it often--at least four times a week. Research shows

that how often you read or listen to your Bible “more reliably

predicts moral behavior than traditional measures of spirituality,

such as church attendance and prayer.” (Source: “Understanding

the Bible Engagement Challenge: Scientific Evidence for the

Power of 4” by Arnold Cole, Ed.D. & Pamela Caudill Ovwigho,

Ph.D.) So be wise. Redeem the time. Your spiritual future is up to

you.

This Week’s Parashah Readings

A Parashah is a designated portion of the Tanakh (Torah, Writings and

Prophets) that is read during the week by the people of the Jewish faith.
