The heart of the message is that salvation is to be found only through following God, and not those who would claim to be god-like. The Lord, in this case, is making the distinction that, while the trappings of godhood are easily available and easy to mimic, any who would clothe themselves in such garb are false, and seek to deceive. It's a warning.
Jesus was pretty clear in his messaging: following his teachings, and walking his path are the only avenue to becoming one with God. And along the way there will be many tests of character and many who will try to dissuade from staying righteous (ie remaining true to Jesus' words).

Well that is disappointing. Goddamn it Buzz.
Matthew 24: For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect
Apparently it used to be much more fashionable to punch people in the mouth. Buzz Aldrin, ~~american hero~~, comes to mind.
Real outdoorsmen run in corduroy; that way they're always prepared to start a fire.
Aptitude is only discovered by doing, and most people don't do a violence. So who knows how many savants are out there.
