In general, the thing that has the most mass has the most gravity. Mass and gravity are directly proportional. It's that simple. Gravity could be said to be a function of mass. Think about a few things and the mass and gravity associated with them.

A truck has more gravity than a person, who will have more gravity than a mouse. A skyscraper has more gravity than any truck, and the moon has more gravity than any building. The earth has more gravity than the moon, and Neptune has more gravity than earth. Jupiter has more gravity than Saturn, which has more gravity than Neptune. The sun has more still than Jupiter. The sun has more mass than all the planets put together, in fact. And then some!

There are many stars with a greater mass (and therefore greater gravity) than the sun, and black holes have enormous gravity that can easily exceed that of stars. Then there's something called a super-massive black hole, which has a really, really, really large amount of gravity.
