GKEMT CONFERENCE OT PROPHETS
INGLING with masters —sitting at the
feet of prophets —that is what the eager
throngs have been doing during the
great Tabernacle Conference now in
session in Atlanta. From many states,
North and South, these Christian work
ers have come, and the fellowship of
these mighty gatherings is beautiful and
inspiring. From 9 o’clock in the morn-
W|
LU
ing until, well —away into the night, the de
lightful services of song and prayer, Bible ex
position and powerful preaching, have held
the people “on the mountain height with the
Lord.”

- LEN G. BROUGHTON,
Founder Tabernacle Bible Conference.
The sanity of the .teaching ami preaching,
the fervency of the spirit of worship and the
positive beauty of Christian fellowship among
the multitudes must take hold at once of the
head and heart of even the most careless man
who casually enters the great Tabernacle.
Dr. W. A. Nelson, apostle of sunshine and conse
cration, like another “John the Beloved” leads the
morning devotions. Dr. A. C. Dixon of Chicago,
who “stands like a tower with its crown in the
sun,” throws his arms of love and tongue of fire
around the Book of books. Dr. Elmore Harris of
the Toronto Bible School renews his grip upon those
who love to go deep into the riches of the Word.
Dr. G. W. McPherson of New York, a new man
among us, is opening up “treasures both new and
old.” William R. Moody, director of the great
Northfield Conference, brings a spiritual blessing
every time he speaks. G. Campbell Morgan of
T)r. "Broughton’s Tabernacle Thronged With Christian Workers and Students From Tar and Near.
ATLANTA, GA., MARCH 12, 1908.
Westminster Chapel, London, is here. That is
enough to say. They missed him last year, and
their impatience was leaping with gladness when
he came. As an expository preacher he is the great
est magnet God has given the world in this genera
tion. And over it all presides the organizing
genius of the great founder of the Conference,
Pastor Len G. Broughton, happy as a king with love
on the throne!

What Means This Mighty Gathering?
Dedicated to the Tabernacle ‘Bible Conference.
What means this mighty gathering —
This army of the Lord,
Whose living shield and helmet
Are God’s eternal Word?
It means that Christ, our Captain,
In golden word and deed,
Still reigns above all dogma,
Still shines in every creed!
This speaking Christian fellowship
That spreads from breast to breast,
And makes the very presence
A gracious heavenly feast;
That makes these beaming faces
With Holy Radiance shine,
And wraps the whole convention
In atmosphere divine.
It means that if some skeptic
Among this throng would stay —
Hear all these strong believers
Who love and work and pray,
His “theories” would crumble,

DR. A. C. DIXON, Chicago.
He’d feel the sacred flame,
And own the mighty power
Os Jesus’ love and name!
It means our dear Atlanta,
The nation, all the earth —
Must catch the holy fire
And know the second birth;
Our churches be more active
In the light these Workers leave,
As day throws back its splendor
In the golden glow of eve!

The Tabernacle Conference is nine years old —
and the last is the largest and the best. The attend
ance has broken all records —and the picture of four
thousand people crowded into the Tabernacle, many
standing in aisles and galleries, shows how greatly
the new auditorium, a reproduction of Spurgeon’s
Tabernacle, is needed in Atlanta.
