Elisabeth Elliot quotes

“There is nothing worth living for, unless it is worth dying for.”

-Eisabeth Elliot

“What does it mean to be a man? Christ is the supreme example. He was strong, and He was pure, because His sole aim in life was to be obedient to the Father. His very obedience made Him most manly- responsible, committed, courageous, courteous, and full of love. A Christian man’s obedience to God will make him more of a man than anything else in the world.”

Elisabeth Elliot “The world cries for men who are strong - strong in conviction, strong to lead, to stand, to suffer. I pray that you will be that kind of man - glad that God made you a man, glad to shoulder the burden of manliness in a time when to do so will often bring contempt.” — Elisabeth Elliot to her nephew, Pete “If your goal is purity of heart, be prepared to be thought very odd.” — Elisabeth Elliot
