In a world filled with evil influences, Christians are called to redeem the time by walking in wisdom. This means actively pursuing good rather than merely avoiding evil, understanding God's will through His Word, and being filled with the Holy Spirit rather than worldly influences. Walking wisely involves daily Bible study, living distinctly from the world, facing trials with faith, and releasing negative emotions like bitterness. By making these choices, believers can make the most of every opportunity to glorify God in this brief window between Christ's first and second coming.
