Indeed they must. To me some of the clearly fundamental thing, spoken by 
Jesus
himself, are "Love your neighbor as yourself", "Do unto others as you 
would have
them do unto you.", "Love your enemies.","Do good to them that 
spitefully and hatefully
use you.", "Become as little children.", et cetera. True these are not 
all of Jesus'
teachings, but they are a major part. It seems to me that anyone who 
doesn't observe
a least these doesn't make a very good showing as a follower of Christ. 
Of course they
may be only immature. :)
