Frank Crane,

[420]Without a doubt Pastor Russell filled the office for which the
Lord provided and about which he spoke, and was therefore that wise and
faithful servant, ministering to the household of faith meat in due
season. Pastor Russell finished his earthly course in 1916.
[421]In 1884 he caused to be incorporated the Watch Tower Bible and
Tract Society, intended by him to continue the work of the harvest
after his earthly career was finished, and which is yet carrying it on.
[422]This great work of gathering together Christian people can be
designated in no other way than as a harvest, and fully meets that which
was foretold by the Lord Jesus. This work, which has covered a period of
about forty-five years, has never had for its purpose the forming of any
arrangement by which Christians join anything. Its purpose and work has
been and is to enlighten men and women concerning the great divine plan,
and by this means of proclaiming the message of truth has gathered
together Catholics and Protestants, Christians from all denominations in
all parts of the earth. These Christians are not the followers of Pastor
Russell, but are followers of the Lord and rejoice to feed upon the food
that the Lord has provided for them through his wise and faithful
servant.
