The lockscreen's purpose is to protect your device from accidentally responding to unwanted touch events (e.g. while carrying the device in one of your pockets). Or - if using a PIN protected lockscreen - to restrict access to the device itself. The reason why the screen goes black/off after a while should be very obvious. It does it to reduce battery consumption.
I'm sure there's no way to disable that.

The lock screen time can be set. Go to SETTINGS> lock screen > there you can set it.
I have a 930 and have in the setting an option NEVER.
Furthermore if you want to use your phone as a nightstand clock. You can check out the app CAR DASH. This is a app for in the car but it also has a clock and you can disable the lock screen. And in the store there may be more apps which can disable the lock screen.

But a disabled lock screen means the phone is not in "save" mode.
Some models also have glance to keep the screen "on" but the 730 does not have this functionality.
