Who is God?

God is our Heavenly Father and we are His children. We were made in his image! He loves us more than we can even comprehend. So much so that he weeps when we suffer and rejoices when we choose that right! Just like any father he wants to hear from us. The best way to communicate with Him is through prayer!
We have been sent here to earth to learn and grow through experiences! If we want to please or Father all we need to do is be obedient to his commandments.
Luckily He has provided us with a way to live with him again! We must be pure and clean from sin if we want to do this!

Jesus Christ's Atonement is central to this plan. The Atonement was a three part act!1. His suffered in The Garden of Gethsemane  and took upon him self ALL of our sins!
2. He died on the cross for us that we
might not suffer!
3. Then was resurrected 3 days later in his glorified and perfected state!
He did this all because:
^{John 3:16} For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 
Nobody likes to disappoint their father! So we need to follow his commandments and and we will all have joy now and in the eternities!
