It is hubris to assume that it is going to actually happen, no matter what purpose they put themselves to in practice.

Not really. I believe God looks upon the children of Christ as Christ Himself. But that is God, and his relationship to our shared kinship with Christ. I never knew that could be true in the physical realm of time, but I'm no bible scholar.
To shy away from the call to be a witness is a false modesty, is what I am saying.
But it should also be worked out, as a fruit of our salvations, with fear and trembling, meaning it is an awesome thing — the consequences of doing it right and of doing it wrong are both awesome, but in different directions.
