What do you think Jesus taught about the most? >"< What do you think?

You mean, what do I think is the most important aspect of Jesus' teaching in the New Testament? Without a doubt, that would be that he is Lord, and that salvation comes only through him, yet it is available to all who will have faith in Him.

I also think that it is more important not to divide the Word in this manner, since the Bible (and especially the New Testament) should be considered as a whole.

Jesus taught to love the lord god w/ all of your heart and also to love one another. And I believe God has a great point; that when we love one another life is both joyful and meaningful.

The Great Commandment:

MAT 22:36 Master, which is the great commandment in the law?

MAT 22:37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

MAT 22:38 This is the first and great commandment.

MAT 22:39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

On this question, I am closely allied with N.T. Wright's analysis in Jesus and the Victory of God.Without a doubt the two-pronged message of redemption and judgment. The kingdom of God was a hand and indeed, it had already manifested itself in His ministry. The long exile was over, now was the time when the eschatological Messiah, the king of the Jews. He exibeted mighty works, trampling the works of of the satan underfoot in every way and healing people, not only to demonstrate the authenticity of His message but also to accomplish the restoration of the status of belonging to the Covenant people of Israel that they lacked due to their ailment. However, His message also heralded judgment. Israel must abandon the hopes of rebelling against Rome but must instead enact their vocation of being the light of the world. They must act as the true people of YHWH morally and spiritually, instead of rebellion they must go the extra mile with the Roman soldier that forces them to carry his burden, they must be the city upon a hill that cannot be hid, and most importantly they must accept that YHWH is acting through Him, the Messiah, and that His Way is the way of peace and life, all others are the way of destuction. Otherwise, harsh judgment will come upon the nation. If "this evil and adulterous generation" does not turn from its ways, the Romans will come and destroy the beutiful Temple, and make Jerusalem and Judea a desolation. If they continue on the path they are following, the days will come when they will watch in agony when they are burning in Gehenna, Gentiles from the four winds reclining with the patriarchs at the Messianic banquet, while they finally realize that they have been cut off from YHWH forever. And if the nation does not all repent, YHWH will proceed with His plans for Israel, but instead of the national Israel, it will be instead all that have sucessfully responded to The Way that will be the true Israel that will be vindicated. These themes seem to converge in a passage cited by Yeshua Christ early in His ministry on what His work is;

Isaiah 61:1-3 ESV wrote:[1]The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me, because the LORD has anointed me to bring good news to the poor]to proclaim the year of the LORD's favor, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn; [3]to grant to those who mourn in Zion-- to give them a beautiful headdress instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, the garment of praise instead of a faint spirit; that they may be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he may be glorified

OMG AGASFAS i was so gonna mention the greatest commandment..

yup, Love God, and Love your neighbor. Those two commandments basically summarize what ALL comandments say.

love,

Actually, the subject that Jesus touched on the most was money/possessions and how they relate to our relationship with the Father.

I believe that this topic is slightly vague, so you will receive a strange variety of answers. Meanwhile, it does not appear to be moving over any particular lines, so it is acceptable.

As to a related question, I believe that Jesus taught about how to live life, and hence all topics are merely interrelated parts of a single subject. But in terms of a specific subject mentioned the most often...

I have been beaten to saying this.

"Taught the most," true it is open to interpretation. Talking about things he talked about numerically, or "most" in a degree of significance which he taught morality, principles and meaningfulness; how we can emply what we've learned to everyday life. So when I read it, I thought she was talking about the most important thing Jesus taught, but in the amount of a subject is mentioned, then yes it will be another topic like Rev. and UC mentioned.
It's all about interpretation of the question.

I think he taught on money and hell the most.

He also tought alot about what it was that we put in front of God, and i belvie that each one will interprite it depending on how God wants them to according to their own streights and weakness. it is a living breathing thing that God uses to talk to us. but if i ddi have to chose i would say love is what them main thing is. to love like Christ, which in order to do that we have to submit, to allow God to work and mold us. to show us our places of pride, and weakness.
