Peter talks about the spirits in prison from the days of Noah's days .Many Bible commentators believe that these are the souls of people who rejected God back in the days of Noah (biblehub.com) .Nevertheless a careful consideration of the verses shows that the only spirits ever locked away in the New Testament is in relation to demons and not dead people .Also the verses in Peter use 2 different words to describe Noah and his family(=psykhai=souls) where as the spirits in prison (=pneumasin=spirits) which further supports the explanation about spiritual beings not human souls

Did Jesus preached to the dead souls of Noahs days?
by raymond frantz indid jesus preached to the dead souls of noahs days?.
in his first letter peter seems to imply that jesus immedaiately after his ressurection he preached to the dead souls of noah's days.in 1 peter 3:19,20 we read :"and in this state he went and preached to the spirits in prison,who had formerly been disobedient when god was patiently waiting in noahs day,while the ark was being constructed,in which a few people, that is, eight souls,* were carried safely through the water.".

Bible Highlights(you won't hear at the Kingdom Hall ) :Numbers 17:8?
by raymond frantz ini don't think the watchtower has dealt before at length with this verse .anyway this is my own research on this verse which corresponds with the bible highlights from the book of numbers .. the article considers the similarities between jesus and aaron as high priest.
also a couple of verses from isaiah that are not often quoted at the kingdom hall .. what does the budding of aarons stuff symbolize in numbers 17:8?.

Talks about "reaching out" to be an elder/ ministerial servant...Jehovah will use elders to guide us through the great tribulation;they will help us with life saving information...(judging from previous persecutions I.e. Russia they will all be in prison first

Social media is too much interaction I suppose and greater exposure to "apostates" that populate these media.they sacrifice effectiveness in the name of absolute control

He just said that the Mormons cut back on their door to door ministry and concentrate on social media.Mormons think that door to door ineffective. The speaker reaffirmed that door to door ministry remains the number 1 way for Jehovahs Witnesses to engage in the ministry.
