I need to apply a date verification from a number of minutes. Basically, I have a date field and a number of minutes. So, 2163 means 1 day, 12 hours and 3 minutes. Given 2163, I need to verify if a date field has elapsed that duration. So, if the date field is equal to 20/07/2006 01:14:32 and I am comparing it to now, I need to verify if the 2163 minutes has expired. What would be the simplest approach to achieve that?

As an example, if 20/07/2006 01:14:32 is the value and now is equal to 21/07/2006 01:14:32, this means the time is not expired. But, if now is equal to 22/07/2006 01:14:32, this means the time has expired because 2163 minutes represents a duration that is under the time duration difference of the two dates.
