there isn't anything to prevent someone from filing a tax return under a fraudulent name, if they have your basic information.. I'm sure you've read this, but here's what the IRS states to help prevent it from happening: Tips to protect you from becoming a victim of identity theft Don’t carry your Social Security card or any documents with your SSN or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) on it. Don’t give a business your SSN or ITIN just because they ask. Give it only when required. Protect your financial information. Check your credit report every 12 months. Secure personal information in your home. Protect your personal computers by using firewalls, anti-spam/virus software, update security patches and change passwords for Internet accounts. Don’t give personal information over the phone, through the mail or on the Internet unless you have initiated the contact or you are sure you know who you are dealing with.

A version/arrangement of this pairing of the tune from The House of the Rising Sun and the words of Amazing Grace was used in the soundtrack in the final scenes of the ill fate but critically acclaimed Record Keeper film... That version is available on iTunes. Search for the single by Roshan Maloney, Amazing Grace (Redux). My digital music library has 10 different versions of Amazing Grace, including a Celtic Punk Rock band's rendition. And then there is what may be one of my favorites, Grace Like Rain, by Todd Agnew, that includes as part of the song the words from Amazing Grace...

Most interesting article.

You surmise evil. Your previous post posited my motivation. Overall you are just using ad hominem attacks through adroit questioning. Your statements are contradictory, because at the one moment they state something as fact and then briefly suggest doubt, but followed by more statements that contradict those statements of doubt. You backtrack, and then you go and do exactly what you backtracked on and give poor excuses. I am finished with this conversation as your methods will just drag me down and lead to never ending debate. I will not respond to anymore posts. Anyone who can see will see.

(not intending this as any sort of political statement!!!)

Spending any length of time trying to receive continual assurance of my eternal security by accepting others' words to give me peace is a lesson in futility, be they well meaning brothers or sisters or well versed pastors or evangelists. Our best chance at settled peace is a result of what one brother in Christ described to me this week end, prayer, praise and practice . 3 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.....Isaiah 26 God is Love!~Jesus saves!

January 17, 2016 Divine Logistics “And Asa cried unto the LORD his God, and said, LORD, it is nothing with thee to help, whether with many, or with them that have no power: help us, O LORD our God; for we rest on thee, and in thy name we go against this multitude. O LORD, thou art our God; let no man prevail against thee.” (2 Chronicles 14:11) Asa was one of the better kings of Judah (great-grandson of Solomon), and his prayer is a beautiful model of how a servant of God can pray when all the human odds are against him. Asa’s army consisted of 580,000 foot soldiers, whereas the invading Ethiopians had a million-man army with 300 chariots. Yet “the LORD smote the Ethiopians before Asa” (2 Chronicles 14:8-9, 12), and his prayer prevailed. The Bible has many such examples: Abraham (Genesis 14:1-16); Gideon (Judges 7:7; 8:10); King Hezekiah (2 Kings 19:14, 19, 35). Before King Saul gained a great victory over the hordes of the Philistines, it was the courageous testimony of Jonathan, his son, that led the way. “It may be that the LORD will work for us,” he had said, “for there is no restraint to the LORD to save by many or by few” (1 Samuel 14:6). Later, David won many battles against all odds, including his personal victory over Goliath (1 Samuel 17:40-49). The servants of the Lord do not need a majority to prevail in the battle against sin and Satan, for “if God be for us, who can be against us?” (Romans 8:31). That is the key, of course. We must not beseech the Lord to fight on our side. He will be for us, if we are first on His side! This was the message of the prophet Azariah to the godly King Asa: “The LORD is with you, while ye be with him; and if ye seek him, he will be found of you; but if ye forsake him, he will forsake you” (2 Chronicles 15:2). Political power, military might, financial resources—all are futile. “Our help is in the name of the Lord” (Psalm 124:8). HMM
