But, God says - you can’t save anyone but yourself, Ez. 14:14.

If I choose my children’s friends, I can guard their influence. If I keep them at my side, perhaps no harm will come. If I teach them about God from dusk ‘til dawn, they will never stray. If I do home schooling, I can keep them from evil one.

But, God says - you can’t save anyone but yourself, Ez. 14:16.

If I study all week, my Sunday School class will receive my lesson. If I speak with tears and emotion, they’ll know all I say is true. If I keep insisting what I believe, they’ll finally get it. If I serve all over church, others will, too.

But, God says - you can’t save anyone but yourself, Ez. 14:18.

Where can a business owner obtain tax information? When you don't know what questions to ask, it's very helpful to take some classes, and read a few articles prior to visiting with a CPA. Enjoy these resources:

Internal Revenue Service (IRS) The IRS has best free classes around! Call your local office to find out when home business or sole proprietorship classes are held. The home business class is a half-day class; sole proprietorship class is a full day. The difference between these two classes -- extra half day -- is spent dealing with employee tax information. Take a class every year. Expenses are deductible and I bet you will learn quite a few things each year.

Web site at http://www.ustreas.gov/, or call toll free (800) 829-3676. Ask for Business Kit Publication 454 and STEP Publication 1057 (Small Business Tax Education Program). Tell them what type of organization you are considering, how many employees you will have, etc., so they can send you other free helpful publications. They'll even send you a very nice Tax Calendar. Just ask for it!

Local Authorities Let's look at some local taxing authorities. In some states, Department of Taxation provides monthly classes for new business owners. They cover state-specific topics such as business income tax, occupancy tax and sales tax.

While we're on local level, don't forget to contact your county, city or town revenue offices, too. Yes, everyone gets in act of collecting some sort of tax! It could be yearly, quarterly, or monthly. At very least, call each entity to see what they need from you and what materials or classes they provide. Don't want to call? The end result is fines and penalties later on -- usually many times more than you would have paid in first place.

Web Sites Although IRS is premier source for tax information, below are other suggested web sites to visit. Peachtree and Intuit (Quicken, QuickBooks) offer bookkeeping, accounting and tax software.
