Luke 6:39-42 - "He also told them this parable: “Can the blind lead the blind? Will they not both fall into a pit? The student is not above the teacher, but everyone who is fully trained will be like their teacher.

You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye."
