It is a bad thing when you do not have an example to follow. Jesus said make sure you obey those who are teaching you correctly, just don't follow their disobedient ways. This should put to rest all those who say "those Christians are hypocrites." Jesus told us to over look what they do and continue to obey the Word. Jesus encourages us to not seek to be the "greatest" but seek to be the "servant."
Jesus is telling us through the owes to the Scribes and Pharisees that it is more important to love and do good to others. What is more important? Loving people or following every little thing in the law. The law was for those who needed direction in doing right. Once the law showed the need for a Savior, we should listen to the teaching of the Savior to lead us into a more perfect way.
