According to George Peterson the 7 basic commands of Jesus are as follows:
1. Repent (and believe the Good News). Mark 1:15
2 Be baptized. Matthew 28:18-20, Acts 2:38
3. Love. John 13:34, Matthew 22:37-40
4. Celebrate the Lord’s supper (take communion). Luke 22:17-20
5. Pray. John 16:34, Matthew 6:5-15
6. Give. Matthew 16:19-21, Luke 6:38
7. Witness (make disciples). Matthew 28:18-20

I like what he had done. It is easy to remember and to teach others.
The questions are:
1. Can we really categorize what Jesus commanded in His teachings into just these seven?
2. Has anyone else done something similar to this? Have they categorized the His teachings/ instructions/ commands/ etc. into their respective categories?
