'Time' in the Bible

And at the appointed time He clearly made known His Message in the preaching with which I was entrusted by the command of God our Saviour:

training us to renounce ungodliness and all the pleasures of this world, and to live sober, upright, and pious lives at the present time,

For there was a time when we also were deficient in understanding, obstinate, deluded, the slaves of various cravings and pleasures, spending our lives in malice and envy, hateful ourselves and hating one another.

After I have sent Artemas or Tychicus to you, lose no time in joining me at Nicopolis; for I have decided to pass the winter there.
