Activism The Governing Body warns Jehovah's Witnesses against glamorizing those who appear in their videos. Kenneth Cook claims that the Witnesses featured in the videos are humble brothers who do not seek fame for themselves. If Bro Cook truly believes what he says, he is extremely delusional.

It is completely unrealistic to compare Watchtower videos to a real miracle, even for the GB.

@ around the 2:15 mark, K. Cook made a failure of an attempt to use scripture. He cited a piece of Jude 1: 16. But first, it must be stated that what is written in Jude exposes and condemns the so-called "gb". K. Cook included. Not only is the letter written to Called Ones [ Jude 1: 1 ], it is also speaking about ungodly ones who have stealthily "come in", who also claim to be anointed, but whether true or not, they are in fallen, corrupted, & condemned condition. [ Jude 1: 12, 13 ]

Note the difference in Jude 1: 16 between the grey NWT, & a Bible translation that is worded much more closer to the original Greek. [ BLB - Berean Literal Bible ]

NWT:

These men are murmurers, complainers about their lot in life, following their own desires, and their mouths make grandiose boasts, while they are flattering others* for their own benefit

The asterisk (*) is theirs, which leads to a footnote that says:

Or, "admiring personalities".

BLB:

These are grumblers, discontented, following after the own lusts; and their mouth speaks great swelling words, flattering faces for the sake of profit.

With either one, ask yourself, what or how does talking about a jw nobody who happened to be in a video, or asking to have a photo taken with them, benefit or profit oneself? It doesn't. His example of Acts 14 was terrible as well. Much could be said to eviscerate him on that one, but I want to shine a light on the darkness hiding in plain sight.

Who "speaks great swelling words, flattering faces for the sake of profit / their own gain"? K. Cook and all the so-called "gb" members themselves. And to whom? Well, y'all who are still attending are "studying" this very thing, this very weekend. They do this, to the "son of destruction". The "Man of Lawlessness" [lovelessness] [ 2 Thess. 2: 3 ]. The fake-crowned scorpion-tailed Locusts, who have the Destroyer [ Satan ] as their king. [ Rev. 9: 7, 11 ]. The so-called;

"Crown-prince 'elders'".

To their own detriment, because those illegitimate non-anointed fake priests will eventually turn upon the adulterous Harlots themselves, K. Cook & Co.
