Nice list! The Bible's a big book, and lists of the highlights are always interesting to me.
I have my own list (many of us do, I suspect). Mine are for when I'm feeling like I might be having trouble living up to or even remembering Jesus' most important Earthly teachings (only my opinion, of course) -- on children, on character and the Kingdom of God / Heaven (or Hell, as the case may be), and especially on loving thy neighbor:
Matthew: 18:1 At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven? 18:2 And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, 18:3 And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. 18:4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. 18:5 And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me. 18:6 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.
Mark: 10:13: And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them: and his disciples rebuked those that brought them. 10:14: But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. 10:15: Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein.
Luke: 17:21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.
John: 13:34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. 13:35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.
John 13:34 we need to remind some of frens on here about his one! So easy to battle each other; but we must pray for our enemies and show them the same grace God gave us! Great list. My go to is Duet 6:4. I believe all sin is rooted in choosing the world over Him. Love the Lord with all your heart, all your soul and all your might! Yes I fall short, but always will fight the good fight.
