The bible is the (holy) scripture. It comprises both the Old Testament and New Testament. The New Testament (new agreement) reveals the life and work of Jesus and the first Christians. The word "christian" is used in Acts 26:27 when the Apostle Paul is defending himself before King Agrippa. In the New Testament, the first 4 books are called Matthew, Mark, Luke and John and are known as the gospels. These gospels tell of Jesus' birth, His life and work, His death and resurrection.

Luke 24:27New International Version (NIV) 27 And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself.

ANOTHER ANSWER:
The "gospels" mentioned above do indeed focus on Jesus' "mortal life" on earth. But, considering that the entire Bible is the recording of His "inspired" Words [that have proceeded from the mouth of God] from Genesis to Revelation... His "teachings" are found throughout the Bible; with the primary focus of those teachings on His Laws, which would have to be shared by the five books of Moses.
His "New Testament teachings" focus on the "spiritual expansion and magnification" of the laws recorded by Moses [for Jesus referenced all His teachings in the gospels from the "Old Testament teachings;" which was the ONLY BIBLE {books, scrolls} around in those days]. His New Testament magnification of the law isn't about the "ACT" of sinning [breaking the law - I John 3:4]... as much as they were about the "spiritual thought process" that leads up to the manifestation of the sinful act:
"You have heard that the Law of Moses says, 'Do not murder' [the 7th Commandment or law]. If you commit murder, you are subject to Judgment.' But I SAY, IF YOU ARE ANGRY [anger is a SPIRITUAL EMOTION, that, if left to fester within one's heart, can lead to a murderous act] with someone, you are subject to Judgment! If you CALL someone an idiot [words are invisible; spiritual - '...the Words that I speak unto you, THEY ARE SPIRIT, and they are LIFE.' - John 6:63], you are in danger of being brought before the high council. And if you CURSE someone [vile, spiritual words], you are in danger of the fires of hell[Gehenna, the valley on the outskirts of Jerusalem where trash was burned; along with certain incorrigible criminals, that shall become the Lake of Fire when Jesus returns].
But, it's Moses' "inspired" Old Testament recordings of God's laws that would be the primary foundation and focal point of God's teachings in the Bible; with Christ's teachings recorded throughout the "gospels" and the "instructional, edifying letters" to all the churches throughout the New Testament, that ILLUMINATE and MAGNIFY the spiritual aspect of them.

Why does Jesus teachings based on the Bible?
You have it a little backwards my friend. The Bible is based on Jesus' teachings. Specifically the first four books of the new testament. Jesus refers to the old testament sometimes in his teachings but they were not based on them.
What is the significance of the Bible for understanding who Jesus is?
The Bible is fundamental in understanding who Jesus is, as his teachings and life are written about by those who lived alongside him in at least 4 "books" and all the background for us to understand why he did what he did and where he did it, is in the rest of the Bible.
What is teachings of Jesus?
The complete Bible, all 66 books, can be considered teachings of Jesus, but to give a brief summary, and more to the point, the Sermon on the Mount covered a lot of material over 3 chapters, so that is where I would begin to start on teachings of Jesus. Sermon on the Mount Matthew chapters 5-7
Is the gospel the same as the bible?
The gospel refers to the four books in the bible that cover the life of Jesus. They are Mathew, Mark, Luke and John.

jesus
What part of The Bible do we learn about Jesus's life and his teachings?
I would look in the books of Matthew and John. Not only do these books contain most if not all of what the Son of God taught, but his love for us as well.
Do the later books of the New Testament contradict the teachings of Jesus?
No. Before his death, Jesus promised that after he left, the Spirit of Truth would come to the apostles and guide them "into all the truth" (John 16:13). Thus, the teachings of the apostles recorded in the later New Testament books are really Jesus' teachings.
What book of the bible did Jesus directly write?

No, there is no book on Jesus' birth that puts it all together using all the books of the Bible, except the Bible.
Where are the teachings of Jesus kept?
What an odd question. Jesus' teachings are found in the new testament of the Bible. The first 4 books of the n.t. are recorded accounts of his teachings, miracles, signs and wonders he performed. Of course this took place almost 2000 yrs ago, long before the printing press was invented. Much evidence is available to prove these writings are accurate, including the oldest copies of these books being discovered in the Dead Sea Scrolls.
