Jesus said, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.” … “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!” Mark 9:23-24 NKJV
Commenting on Mark 9:24, Earl Radmacher in the New King James Study Bible said, “‘I believe; help my unbelief’ expresses the dilemma that even those who believe can be nagged by doubt and hopelessness. This man took the correct course by appealing to Jesus for help.”
The author of “Discover Your Destiny,” Dave Breese, taught: “What you believe is the most important thing about you.”
TTT Christian Youth Ministries is aggressively evangelistic. The vision: Every youth, before turning 20, to hear the Gospel with an invitation to “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ.”
TTT consistently endeavors to connect with local congregations who believe:
1. The Bible is the inspired, the only infallible and authoritative Word of God.
2. That there is one God, eternally existent in the three persons: the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
3. In the Deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood and His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His tangible return in power and glory.
4. That for the salvation of lost and sinful man, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.
5. In the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.
6. In the resurrection of the body of the saved and lost, they that are saved unto the resurrection of life and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
7. In the spiritual unity of believers in Christ.

Paul Rader, Chicago Gospel Tabernacle founder and Christian communicator, challenged Lance Latham to establish Tabernacle Publishing. “Tabernacle Hymns” were used in my home church from 1940 forward.
It included the song George Stebbins wrote: “Take time to be holy, speak oft with the Lord; abide in Him always and feed on His Word. Take time to be holy, let Him be thy Guide; and run not before Him, whatever betide. In joy or in sorrow, still follow thy Lord. And looking to Jesus, still trust in His Word.”
Lampstand lessons from the Old Testament Tabernacle challenge: “What does the Lord your God require of you, but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in all His ways and to love Him, to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul.” Deuteronomy 10:12 NKJV
Paul Rader’s song “Only Believe” is included in “Tabernacle Hymns”: “Fear not, little flock: from the cross to the throne, from death into life He went for His own. All power in earth, all power above is given to Him for the flock of His love.”
“Fear not, little flock, whatever your lot. He enters all rooms the doors being shut. He never forsakes, He never is gone, so count on His presence in darkness and dawn.”
“Only believe, only believe, all things are possible, only believe.”
