1. Sermon on the Mount:

   - *Bible Verses:* Luke 6:17-49
   - *Key Points:* 
     - Blessings and woes: Jesus blesses the poor, the hungry, the weeping, and the persecuted but warns of woe to the rich, the full, those who laugh now, and those spoken well of by others.
     - Love for enemies: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.

4. The Great Commission:

   - *Bible Verses:* Matthew 28:16-20

5. The Two Greatest Commandments:
   - *Explanation:* Jesus summarizes the entire law into two commandments: love God and love your neighbor.
   - *Bible Verses:* Matthew 22:34-40
   - *Key Points:* 
     - Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself.

These are just a few of the sermons and teachings of Jesus from the Bible. There are many more throughout the New Testament.
