When George Leigh-Mallory was asked why men should want to climb Everest he made the classic reply: "Because it is there." Perhaps it is not stretching the analogy too far to say that the same answer may be made to the question: "Why should anyone want to tackle the difficult problem of the Second Coming?" It is there as the center around which the theology of the New Testament revolves and it is planted squarely in the creeds of the Church. We can no longer avoid this problem and remain intellectually respectable.
