It is a pretentious and potentially dangerous mindset, in my opinion, to assume to be God's tool, doing supposedly God's will.

Actually no it's not....but there are many counterfeits and false prophets, Christ said that would be so. Some are clearly so, others hide behind a cloak of Christianity. However we are responsible for discerning the difference and God is faithful to assist us in that determination. Generally speaking if one is familiar with scripture it's not difficult to determine....though sometimes it takes time to. Anything which opposes scripture should be a red flag.

That's what every jihadist says as well. The Jews are just as certain that Christains are wrong as the Christains are certain the Mormons are.

Every religious sect or cult has its own "scripture" and its own "official truth" based on them. Generally speaking if one is familiar with scripture it's not difficult to determine....though sometimes it takes time to. Anything which opposes scripture should be a red flag
