  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Dang, this song makes me get so close to tearing up. Found this cover of Casting Crowns - Who Am I, by the Asidors, a group of Asian musicians from the Philippines who moved to California that I have never heard until today.



Relevant Bible verse for the song:
Romans 5:6-8 (ESV): "For when we were still without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die. But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us."

Who Am I (Lyrics, 2003 original, 2021 cover):

Who am I, that the Lord of all the earth would care to know my name?
Would care to feel my hurt?
Who am I, that the bright and morning star would choose to light the way
For my ever wandering heart?
Not because of who I am
But because of what you've done
Not because of what I've done
But because of who you are
I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean (ocean)
A vapor in the wind
Still you hear me when I'm calling
Lord, you catch me when I'm falling
And you've told me who I am
I am yours, I am yours
Who am I, that the eyes that see my sin would look on me with love
And watch me rise again
Who am I, that the voice that calmed the sea would call out through the rain
And calm the storm in me?
Not because of who I am
But because of what you've done
Not because of what I've done
But because of who you are
I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean (ocean)
A vapor in the wind
Still you hear me when I'm calling
Lord, you catch me when I'm falling
And you've told me who I am (I am)
I am yours
Not because of who I am
But because of what you've done
Not because of what I've done
But because of who you are
I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean (ocean)
A vapor in the wind
Still you hear me when I'm calling
Lord, you catch me when I'm falling
And you've told me who I am (I am)
I am yours
I am yours
I am yours
Whom shall I fear?
Whom shall I fear?
'Cause I am yours
I am yours

Ooh, one more thing, I love how one of the singers expresses his confidence in the Lord when he sings, by holding his head heavenwards. Like woo bro, his chin's probably got to be at least a 20-30 degree angle above horizontal. Especially in 2024, I love praisin' the Lord, though I do not hold my head high cos my neck does not go that far, but instead dance to the music and sing the lyrics as best as a man can.

AMEN!!!!
Who am I?
I am Yours, Lord Jesus.
Amen brother. I am yours, Lord Jesus, King above all kings. :) Lord Yeshua sacrificed his life for us, nearly 2000 years ago, so we can live to praise His name, trust in Him, and stay in God's house after we pass away.

The name in the upper left hand corner is the name of Jesus in his native language of Aramaic, while on the upper right is Hebrew. In the center is Greek, while on the lower left is Latin.
