Could these "older" religions perhaps have a vested interest in maintaining
that they are the only "true" Christian religion?  What defines a Christian
religion:  A belief in Jesus Christ, some religious sect's dogma, or some
other criteria?

For many who do not know, the LDS (Mormon) Religion uses the King James
Version of the Bible, such as many other Christian sects, along with
its other standard works (Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Convenants, etc.).
