It depends how you interpret them and what you mean by selfish. Jesus preaches to leave your family because they are not as worthy of your attention than he, and join him. Sounds pretty selfish to me.

According to the idealistic story described in the bible, Jesus, had only a "good fight" in his mind, no selfishness. He wanted only selflessness and even trough lies wanted to provoke as many people as possible to join his path.

Story is pretty, like superman fairy tale is.
