The Meeting Place

Narrator: Chris Genthree
Listen from:
The train for Montreal was just ready to leave. A lady stood on the steps and waved to her friend, calling out as she did so, “Good-bye, we shall meet again.” Then she entered the coach and sat beside me.
I thought of the uncertainty of this life and of the soon corning again of our Lord Jesus, and so I turned to her and said,
“Your parting words to your friend set me thinking.”
“Did they?” she answered. “Why?”
“I was thinking that three different things might happen. If you are both saved and belong to the Lord Jesus, you will both meet in heaven. If one of you is saved and the other not, you will be widely separated for all eternity. And if neither one of you belongs to the Lord Jesus, you will both be in the lake of fire.”
“Oh, I hope not,” she answered quickly, “I wouldn’t like to be there.”
I repeated then, these words,
“He that believed” on Him is not condemned; hut he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” John 3:1818He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. (John 3:18).
The lady had nothing more to say, but I sat there and prayed that she might accept Jesus as her Saviour and so be traveling, not only to Montreal, but to heaven. WHERE WILL YOUR MEETING PLACE BE?
