Police recently released the pictures of the 25 people who are on their most wanted list for identity theft. They've allegedly stolen other people's personal details and then used their own photographs to get passports, driving licences and other documents. These documents in turn have opened up access to applications for mortgages, bank loans and benefits.
Identity theft is the fastest growing type of fraud in Britain and hit an all time high in 2012 with over 150,000 identifiable victims according to CIFAS, the UK's Fraud Prevention Service. So we have to be careful: careful to protect our own identity and careful about making assumptions about the identity of others.
As Christians, we place our faith in the person and identity of Jesus Christ. But how can we be sure of who he is and indeed his actual existence as a real person? There are many in the world who suggest his existence - and certainly his miracles and resurrection - were little more than fraud.
In The Case For Christ, Lee Strobel, a former legal editor of the Chicago Tribune, tests out what the Bible says about Jesus. Who he is, what he did and why he came. He explores the evidence for Jesus' existence - in the Bible and out - and assesses whether this man truly is who he says he is.
