It all ends in the perfect commandment of Christ-like love. However, since most of us are not there yet, there are other commandments and calls to obedience to lead us to that perfect state.
I would suggest that the initial steps as stated by Nephi and Jesus as the "Doctrine of Christ" are: Faith in Christ, Repentance, Baptism/Ordinances, Gift of the Holy Ghost (2 Ne 31, 3 Ne 11). These develop a progressive pattern that lead us to perfection, line upon line. We go from grace to grace, receiving grace for grace (D&C 93).
