God has ordained the measure of fruit which each servant of His shall reap from his labours, the degree of success which each Gospel lamp-bearer
shall have. He has determined what number of souls should be edified, and which shall be hardened by his light. "So that neither is he that planteth
any thing, neither he that watereth ; but God that giveth the increase." (1 Cor. 3:7)
