This is where we must start!
BY FAITH we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what is visible. Without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him.
Hebrews 11 v 3 & 6
He has made everything beautiful in its time.
He has also set eternity in the hearts of men.
Ecclesiastes 3 v 11
We are all God conscious whether we realise it or fail to admit it. Think about it!

My identity is found in Christ Jesus, and should you view biblical quotes as fallacious logic, how much more your beliefs that so much makes you? if you cannot identify yourself with your very belief, you cannot put your money where your mouth is or rather you can't put your life where your beliefs are. How sure then are we of who are if beliefs doesn't affect our identity as an individual?

Oh you poor poor person.
Can I ask, why is it that to ask a question like yours you have to quote some kind of scripture? Why is it that god doesnt want "his" flock to be good people, but instead places more import on them just believing. Doesnt work right if you really think about it, but there again judging on the way you structured your question, your capability toward free thought has been stunted.
Who am I, well that is a great question. For such a great question it is so sad that you have put a religious spin on it. Putting religion onto such a question removes the enigma from it and thus renders the question futile. So therefor it is pointless for me to contin

Yes, I have asked myself that question. And OK, I've thought about it. There is one mysterious statement in you question - about needing "faith" to "please God." He needs me to acknowledge and have "faith" him? Why exactly would that be? Are there self-esteem issues here? And you'd probably tell me that if I don't somehow acquire this "faith," and obedience then I am doomed to an eternity of pain.
To you this may sound like god, to me it sounds more like an abstracted Saddam Hussein - another insecure, murderous tyrant.
Lastly, it is a sign of terminal zealotry when one assumes that even those who claim other views cannot possible really hold them.

Yes, I've asked myself: "Who am I?"
It's when you ask yourself a question and you hear a reply that you have to start worrying about your mental health.
The rest of your post isn't a question, or in any way useful. It's just more Xian Fundie preaching. Skimmed it, didn't read it. Bible Quotes and faulty logic. Yay.

When Gautama started thinking " Who am I " , he became lord Budha. When Shankar wanted to know about himself. he became Shankaracharya. IN true sense path of spiritualism starts in search of this question.

Yes i did...and all in return i received was...i'm nobody....cause all that we claim to be are the roles we've accepted to play in this world, in the so called society....subtract all that from ur life and u as a person are actually nothing....ur soul has no definition ....no name ...no attributes...no specific character ...it is just in the being 'YOU'....hence nobody....

You have no authority to tell me where I "must" start. I prefer to use my own rational thinking, I am open minded for every sort of discussion but please do not throw religious texts at me if you are asking something.
