He Sent His Son

 I recently read a conversation in which one person asked why a loving God would send his children to Hell.  

The response was simple and yet profound.  He doesn't.  He sent His son to save them from it instead. (I wish I could find it again to give the author credit).

Read how this passage in D&C 20 confirms this beautiful doctrine.

17 By these things we know that there is a God in heaven, who is infinite and eternal, from everlasting to everlasting the same unchangeable God, the framer of heaven and earth, and all things which are in them;

18 And that he created man, male and female, after his own image and in his own likeness, created he them;

19 And gave unto them commandments that they should love and serve him, the only living and true God, and that he should be the only being whom they should worship.

20 But by the transgression of these holy laws man became sensual and devilish, and became fallen man.

21 Wherefore, the Almighty God gave his Only Begotten Son, as it is written in those scriptures which have been given of him.

22 He suffered temptations but gave no heed unto them.

23 He was crucified, died, and rose again the third day;

24 And ascended into heaven, to sit down on the right hand of the Father, to reign with almighty power according to the will of the Father;

25 That as many as would believe and be baptized in his holy name, and endure in faith to the end, should be saved

He knew because of our imperfections we needed help.  We needed to be saved from our natural, fallen state.  

So he sent Jesus Christ to rescue us.

It's exactly what a loving father would do.
