As the newborn’s cry pierced the air, Philip James Elliot was welcomed into the world on October 8, 1927 (Wikipedia). He was born, like all of us, pink, fragile, and helpless. With time, spiritual maturity, and obedience, he developed into a mighty man of God and great in the Christian faith. People are still impacted by his life and death. Elliot, known as Jim, was a missionary who was brutally killed in the effort

Jim Elliot’s life and death influenced people to spread the gospel. God used his death to bring salvation to many Auca Indians and inspiration to thousands of believers worldwide. His death had an impact on people to go to other countries and share the love of Jesus. After his death, the mission to spread the gospel to the Auca Indians did not end.

Whether it came to missionary work, or marrying the love of his life, Jim would wait for God’s perfect timing. Jim Elliot first demonstrated

Anne Elliot is a kind and principled young woman. In her younger years she is somewhat passive and easily persuaded by those around her. Anne grows up however, and in developing her character she transforms into a confident and straight thinking young woman, no longer easily swayed by persuasion of her friends and family nor political correctness of social relationships.

As such Sangi, Soomro, and Gopang emphasize that Elliot is successful in showing that human beings are devoid of the evident qualities of strength, determination and moral strength (473). Accordingly, in line with the heading, people behave like empty bodies that lack the positive virtues
