What is the main message of Christianity?
Human is having mind and free will for him to carry out actions. Mind will decide what is good for him, then free will will carry out actions accordingly. God in His own wisdom, took jews, to train what how to manage our free will, independent to HIM. We have option to accept HIM and surrender our free will to HIS or we can totally reject HIM. Upto the end of JESUS
Life,HE has showned us what to do, to enjoy happiness in our life! So Christianity God represent in 3 persons Father and Son shows the method to jews, how to be happy in this life, then Holy spirit spread the good news to the whole world thru' Pope and guiding now,how to manage the paradigm changed.
Why God selected Cross, to represent human life?
Why God selected to show death thru' a cross?. Cross is having 2 arms/horizontal-parallel to earth,showing,every time in your life,is attracted towards earth bound cravings
(1)MONEY,POWER & DESIRES
(2)Your actions, can be either WHOLEHEARTED/ULTERIOR MOTIVE/PERSONA
and other arm is vertical towards HEAVEN,strive to develop FAITH/HOPE/Charity.
How far you can manage,earth bound cravings will result you to move from Horizontal to vertical. That is why God selected CROSS,to show an example for us!.Most of religions in the world tries to balance these two. That is why, we respect all religions. Catholism gives clear unambiguous process to balance this by laymen & clergy!
Our actions can be either
(1) Whole hearted
(2) With ulterio motive
(3) Persona
When You don't know, Love of God, that HE has created you for happiness, your actions can end up in above 2 or 3.

Why Jesus waited till Judas' to leave that place, to tell, Love one another!. Juda's was a disciple but what he wanted is a political success from Jesus, to overthrow,Roman Empire from Israel. So he was with Jesus as far as outside world think, but his internal is with satan.
Persona means, the way you behave when you are with other people, that makes them to think that you are particular type of person.
Are we Christians the same?, that is the question one has to reflect today! Are we like Juda's?
On one side we carry the banner of LOVE ONE ANOTHER, on other side of the coin, we lead an convenient life forgetting sins.Absolving sins by ourselves, without
Going to a priest!(As against Jn 20:23)

1st Reading - ACTS 14:21-27
“We must go through many hardships to enter the kingdom of God,” they said. With prayer & fasting, they committed to the Lord, in whom they had put their trust…He open door for Pagans

2nd Reading - REV 21:1-5A John saw a new heaven & earth… Saw the Holy City coming down out of heaven… ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away… I am making everything new!”

Gospel Reading - John 13:31-33A, 34-35When Judas was gone Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man is glorified… I will be with you only a little longer. As I have loved you, so you should love one another. Then all will know that you are my disciples”.
Reminds:
Reminds:
(1)after Jesus,all human free will became independent with an option of following God or not. Your free will is independent &have to mange by your self(new heaven+new earth)
(2)Your actions has to be whole hearted for love of God(since HE has created you to be happy) without any ulterio-motive/persona,NOT like Judas
(3)Pure intention for action always precede Love(HE waited to tell Love until Judas leave)
(4)Catholism main slogan-U can erase effect of sins by REPENTANCE +CONFESSION+INDULGENCE
(5)No rebirths,you know clearly what is U'r Sin(unlike Karma)
(6)when you are happy,you can love others
(7)then world will see you as Catholic.
Conclusions: All religions in this world say Love each other. But Christianity says 1st Love God, then love other. Is God selfish?
No. He wanted to know how much we know our life(creation), more you are happy, more you know,it is due to God. In order understand love of God, we should mainly follow 7 Ethics of Catholism. There are 2 important actions for a catholic to follow.(1) avoid laziness,and develop your talents(2)every human in this world,tends to sin(going against 7 ethics), sin will cause you to be unhappy in your life.
In order to avoid, the bad effects of Sin, You should (a)Repent (b)confess to a Priest(Jn 20:23)(c)carry out many indulgence work, to please the God, to reduce the punishment due to sin.
Once you confess, you permanent punishment will be converted to temporary punishment!.

When you believe KARMA, you cannot repent for your sin, since you don't what sins are effected into your present life. This will confusion to identify, what is present sin or previous birth sins. Repentance for sin, and carry out rehabilitation process, throughout your life, become very tedious. The Risen Christ, confirms us that there are no rebirth and only sins you have is due to present life.
Indulgence
Most of catholics have forgotton not only confession, but indulgence!
Defenition of indulgence(catechism of catholic church- CCC 1471) says: " a remission before God of the temporal punishment due to sins whose guilt has already been forgiven, which the faithful christians who is duly disposed gains under certain prescribed conditions through the action of the church which,as the minister of redemption,dispenses and applies with authority the treasury of the satisfactions of Christ and the saints".
Indulgences are similar to removing stitches over an already healed wound. There are conditions for obtaining the plenary indulgence;
(1) Perform the prescribed prayers or works of charity
(2)Get to confession and Holy Eucharist 7 days before or after
(3)Be free from attachment to sin,even venial.
