  • Suffering is Not For Nothing | Full Movie | Elisabeth Elliot
    Elisabeth Elliot, widow of martyred missionary Jim Elliot, has spent much time examining our relationships with one another and our Creator. The journey God ordained for her carried her through courtship, marriage, the loss of two husbands, and on the path to a new ministry forum--all by the sustaining grace of an abiding Father which prevailed through trials, suffering, and loneliness. With keen insight Elliot penetrates the world's mediocrity and popular panaceas for anxiety and confusion. She raises a standard for excellence straight from the pages of Scripture. True peace, contentment, and freedom from worldly despair, she maintains, is found in the clarity of biblical wisdom and intimacy with Christ.

    I truly needed this as a wife of an unsaved narcissist husband. Ow how I am comforted as I cry out needing justice, but now I see there are more ppl suffering more than I. Thank u for sharing. Pls pray for my family as I am the only Christian in a family of Atheists. The loneliness, the mockery, the desire to run. But, May the Lord’s will abound in me, may He break me to nothing so that He alone can be seen in me. Bless everyone who’s suffering🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

      @MeindlArts your comment spoke to me!!! I just got out of a 12 year narcissistic marriage. I haven't met anyone who could possibly understand this abuse, or understand how twisted a "human being" could be. Praying for you! I survived. Praise God. You will.. Jesus hear us!!!!

      @@womanofgod465 I am so grateful to hear u survived after leaving. My numb existence in a foreign country far from home because I thought I married a real person who loved me! I tell u, I had to repent for my part in this! As a stay home mom with no income, I am praying not to have to uproot my kids from their friends and the only home they know! I guess it’s me who’s afraid for myself more! Having this kind of abuse is definitely evil and these ppl know how to hide their true selves from outsiders. Some days I am strong , some days I am a mess. Having had depended on him for 12 years and faced with starting from nothing scares me. I have accepted that I’ll never have a loving marriage nor a husband that loves and respects me and his children.
      I’ve accepted that I need to give a final consequence. I don’t know how and when! The liminal spade of in between staying and leaving is the torture.
      Thank you for your encouragement, I needed to hear from another like me! Have a blessed weekend, I pray to have ur courage!!

    Words that struck my heart from Part 1.
    1. Suffering is never for nothing.
    2. Suffering is having what you don't want and not having what you want.
    3. The deepest things I learned in life came out from my deepest sufferings.
    4. The gift of love comes with suffering.
    5. It's only in the cross that we can harmonize love and suffering.
    6. Joy is not the absence of suffering but the presence of God.
    7. Suffering is an irreplaceable medium that taught me indispensable lesson of who God is.

    As a young woman I read Elisabeth Elliott's books, listened to "Gateway to Joy," and generally considered her a mentor and heroine. Everyone considered it odd considering my happy-go-lucky demeanor and peaceful life. Elisabeth wrote about such "heavy" subjects that seemed to have nothing to do with me. I idolized her in many ways. Listening to her speak here of going over her old journals and connecting what she wrote and quoted with later events in her life, I can see now how God prepared me as a young woman as well. One way he did that was through Elisabeth's writings. In my 30s everything in my life turned upside down. Ten years later there is still fallout. I can't tell how many times in my darkest hours I could hear Elisabeth's greeting on "Gateway to Joy" (in her lovely back East accent), "You are loved with an everlasting love-- that's what the Bible says --and underneath are the everlasting Arms." ♡

      Hello Kristyn,
      Many thanks to you for sharing your comments about Elisabeth’s walk and testimony and how it has helped you. I as well have been much encouraged by her work. It seems to me that the overarching ring of her message is that we can and should trust Him with every ingredient that He brings into our lives. And not only trust, but learn how to embrace these things as His perfect way to prepare and make us ready for Him. The Lord made her to sing that song well, and it has helped and reminded many that they are perfectly safe in doing so. I reused your word ‘prepare’ intentionally because that is indeed what He is doing.

She teaches Truth above all, the strength that comes in listening to it and the humility in receiving it. That is the living of it. I’m 57 now. I have been seriously struggling lately with all the evil that surrounds us in these last days and “out of nowhere” this comes up in my youtube feed today. It has a coming home feel to it. God is merciful. I look forward to meeting Elisabeth soon and thanking her for her steadfast faith and teaching me to walk well with the Lord.

    Its divine providence that I pounced on this talk. I will watch it over and over until I can assimilate the message on suffering and the cross. One of the most beautiful messages from personal experience in suffering well gelled with scripture. One can't help love Jesus more through this lady's lens. May the Lord grant you a place with the greatest of the saints in heaven.

    As a molestation & rape survivor, l wrote a letter ✉️ to Elisabeth way back in the 90 when l lived in the Boston area. She talked about parts of my letter & showed nothing but compassion & understanding which is something l never ever got from any church or any pastor, only judgement. She made me feel so very validated, understood & comforted. I knew she was the real deal & not just yet another religious hypocrite. I was totally hooked on her show ( WEZE) & took her teachings to heart. How l looked forward to her show! How much l respected her & always will. What a truly wise soul, filled with the teachings of God. Her legacy & teachings will never be forgotten. I bless her family in Jesus name & thank God for her life always.

    I myself am a young disabled mother and suffer horrible chronic pain having had my 13th surgery in 15 years only a week ago. In a short period my oldest daughter was dx with a rare disease and had a brain stent placed and is now being testing for underlying illnesses, my mother passed away, my other 2 kids were hit by a car suffered broken bones, and I can say I could not endure on my own strength. All of these sufferings recently have led me straight to the feet of Jesus in reliance! How fortunate I am to have shared in Christ’s sufferings! My strength is made perfect in weakness! I pray everyone who found their way through trials and afflictions will continue to Stay strong and understand there is purpose to every pain!

      @@rochellekeels8026 remember with great joy that Jesus told us, "when u see all these things coming to pass, "do not be afraid. Look up. Your redemption draweth nigh." Remember that Noah and his family were NOT taken away to heaven before the flood came. They were PREPARED. They rode the waves right over the top while the evil ones were ALL taken away....remember that "God's people" the house of Israel, Abraham's seed, was NOT whisked away as the 10 plagues fell on the earth.
      No, they lived right among all the ones who died. They SAW the recompense of the wicked....THEY were right in the center of disaster, but SAFE in Goshen. Even the plague of darkness did NOT come into Goshen..."BUT there was light in Goshen." And they walked out in a grand Exodus....."all of them, every whit whole, not one feeble among them."
      The EVIL ones were destroyed in front of Israel's eyes.....the wicked ones were taken away, and Abraham's seed walked THROUGH and came out on the other side. Remember the wheat and the tares.....Jesus said, the wheat is left standing in the end to be "gathered into the landowners barn" while the TARES are "taken away and thrown into the fire".
      Remember when u take Jesus as your Savior, you are re-gened. You are a "new man" you are adopted
      You BECOME Abraham's seed. And you WILL see the recompense of the wicked,
      With your own eyes. You will see them "taken away from the earth" while walking THROUGH their devastation and loss to your Redemption to the NEW earth, that great city from on high, the New Jerusalem. Remember the great lengths to which the Father went to LEAD Lot and his family right through those cities that were destroyed! While they hesitated and dragged their feet, finally an angel took them by the hand and lead them right through the streets and out into the country to a place of safety.
      And the Bible SAYS, "Remember Lot's wife!"
      Don't...look...back.....
      Keep walking. Shalom, all you adopted ones, brothers and sisters. Don't let the events of the day get u rattled. Our Redemption is near......even at the door.
      We are HERE for just such a time as this. You will NOT die 1 minute earlier than the time that God has allotted to you......not 1 minute. And all death is to us is passing through a veil, slipping the bondage of earth. BUT not all of us will have an earthly slipping away.......many will be here at the last moment when Jesus arrives for us,
      Raises the dead to Himself,
      And CHANGES everyone else so we can all be together with Him! Where WE will be like Him because we will see Him as He is and we will be known AS we WERE known. There will be no introductions. We will all know each other. See u soon......👋🏻😊

I try to remember that what was meant for evil God will use for his glory but sometimes it is hard (like today). Saving this in my CRPS playlist for when I need to remember where my hope comes from and that the truth of Jesus is all I need. One day this body will be healed and God has all the glory then and now.

      Sounds like he went through public school indoctrination. Evolution is false on an eighth-grade rational man level. The evolutionary theory fits into the exact shape of a classic snow cone just replace the ice chips with new species and positive mutations which do not exist but should be commonplace. At the point of the snow cone is the "origins of life" which after over fifty years they do not have a mechanism for a self-replicating protein. The canning industry puts all the parts into a can billions of times a year and depends on neo-biogenesis not occurring. Information science shows that DNA can only degrade. Currently, we are in the sixth extinction crisis that of large animals such as the lion, cheetah, and giraffe. Extinction crises are not predicted by the evolutionary theory but rather more and more new species. Creation is an upside-down snow cone that is devolving through entropy to the extinction of the biosphere just as we are seeing. The computer modelers of biological systems cannot reproduce Darwinian Evolution using Darwin's parameters either. This gives evolutionary psychology and especially psychiatric theory a false foundation. God bless you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, Kent J. Nauman ex-MD (axis I schizophrenia (chronic))

      Well, it’s also not supposed to be a real, never ending, ever worsening, ever increasingly hopeless nightmare of non stop burning and throbbing pain. And since I know that some people endure exactly what I describe here, almost from birth on or even earlier, over decades and decades, I dare not speak in attempts to even marginally rationalise it. If God had had one rationalisation or explanation for why people in such dire situations have to endure without immediate relief or hope, he had included it in His Word. But He did not. And that is why I don’t speak about suffering any more. From a human perspective there is no reason or purpose to severe and undeserved suffering. Only God knows...
      So millions suffer right now. With no answer and no relief. And if you still can believe in God despite that fact, then you know it must be thanks to faith. And you also know your faith is real.

    • @rexremedy1733
      @rexremedy1733 3 роки тому +2

      What about those who couldn’t bear it because it was unbearable and who killed themselves out of desperation, because God wouldn’t grant them any relief? Because I know that this happens... you want them also to tell of the benefits of suffering? Or to those whom they left behind? I dare not speak about suffering in human terms any more. There is no rational answer from human perspective. There is not always an explanation. The purpose of severe suffering is beyond human concepts and our intellectual grasp. We rather accept it, and instead focus on helping those in pain and need. We rather not engage in the folly of rationalising severe suffering. It is a fruitless endeavour. Reducing suffering in our brethren, if we can, however, isn’t.

But none the less my point is that I am so amazed God had a plan thru the pain loss and suffering and knew I would get out the other side to him and he gave me just enough to keep me moving forward to him in the end...got me thru so much pain and suffering to learn what faith is and I'm now learning about him, and am greatly appreciative for everything I suffered thru and do it all over again you be where I am now....only fear is I'll not be fast enough to grow with lord and my journey so I can be a tool for him any way he see me fit and before he comes go take his people so THIS VERY UNASSUMING NOT GREAT OR SPECIAL PERSON I AM CAN ACCOMPLISH GREATNESS ALL FOR YOU GOD

    I really needed to hear this…I live in constant physical pain due to circumstances totally beyond my control. There is a plan in place for my condition to improve but it has been two years and the process seems to have hit a brick wall after it’s initial success. Many days I plead to just be allowed to ‘come home’ but He chooses that I stay here in this body of pain, helplessness and depression. In my head I have always believed God never wastes our pain…there is always a way that He is using suffering to teach us His very important lessons. But after hearing Elizabeth’s message I feel that this knowledge has reached my heart. Or at least affirmed what I believed. I don’t know how physical suffering rates or differs from what she’s experienced. Pain is pain. And I don’t know how horrid pain can teach me anything…yet…TRUST ME. There it is! She repeats this throughout her message. The key to getting through this life in two words! I don’t know what it’s like to lose two husbands and I don’t know what else she has been through…but this women looks and speaks with such rock solid peace and faith! She has given me a spiritual vitamin shot. Her message and the totally confident, yet humble manner she has, has spoke louder and more encouragingly to me than the many other “pull yourself up” messages I have heard. Thanks for making this message available!
