   No, I would not believe him.  The Bible says that when Jesus does
   return he'll do so in power and glory.  There will be no doubt to
   his identity.

But this just begs the question.  The Old Testament prophets said the
Messiah would come in power and glory the first time.  I think they
were right, and I think Jesus did demonstrate power and glory.  Let's
not confuse our images of power and glory with God's.  If "all the
fulness of God" resided in Jesus of Nazareth, surely that includes
power and glory as well.
