Those seen today who present themselves as Bible teachers, leaders, scholars, noteworthy authors, preachers, pastors, and pundits all use the word "We" when putting forth their talk.

Indeed, the OT & NT Writers did use the "We" to collectively speak of those in The Kingdom of God, but they were assigned as Prophets to do just that. Today, the busy church talkers speak "We" not because they are Prophets, but because they need to do so to put rhetotic pressure upon their readers and listeners to agree with their talk. For them, it presupposes a false authority and a leverage to demand some sort of empathy.

No religious talker today has the authority or position to speak for others regarding spiritual identity and knowledge of Christ. Avoid them.

Rather than speak "We" for others, give clear witness of Christ's Power and Salvation for yourself.
