There is nothing worth living for unless it is worth dying for.

My grandmother lived a life devoted to Jesus, and today her talks have been made available

in their original form.

So you too can be built up through the insights and mysteries God revealed to her throughout

her ministry.

Now without further ado, here is Elizabeth Elliott.

Ephesians 4.24 says that we are to put on the new self, created to be like God in true

righteousness and holiness.

I think the teaching on loving oneself is a confusion.

As to love is to desire the good of the object.

If I start loving myself, I will be desiring my own good.

Love is always self giving.

So I find that very perplexing when people come up and give me this line about, but I

have to learn to love myself, I think it's a confusion and a very destructive kind

of confusion.

So I do what I can to try to sort that out.

Love is described in 1 Corinthians 13.

Love is very patient, very kind.

Love is very gentle.

Love never wants itself.

It's not puffed up.

It doesn't keep records of wrongs.
