Public declaration of Jesus for salvation is all that is required.
Wedging in a list of "others" who must be publicly declared is a dangerous indication of idolatry.
The GB are god's mouthpiece. Rebuttal to elders?

LOL yeah Punkofnice
The Watchtower reserves the right to alter, change, or reverse any doctrine, rule, or regulation due to time and unforeseen occurrence, which befall us all, government deals (see Bulgaria), excessive passage of time (see 1914), too many deaths or imprisonment (blood fractions, alternative service) or any other thing that might make us look like fools stuck in the 1960's. We also reserve the right to ask for $0.15 from each publisher despite preaching that giving should be completely voluntary under no compulsion whatsoever.
Your brothers standing over you in the faith,

Isn't "God's mouthpiece" just a less obvious way of saying "Word of God"?
It is just another way that shows them as a false christ, and they put it right out there in everyone's faces... but no one sees.
Peace,

Alec - You are correct. Just $0.15? Bargain. I might rejoin the cult if it's that cheap....on second thoughts....

Terry:
Public declaration of Jesus for salvation is all that is required.
That was an interesting thought. I wonder what would happen if you simply quoted or paraphrased Romans 10:9 and added, 'Anything else doesn't matter to me.'
(Romans 10:9 NWT ". . . For if you publicly declare that ‘word in your own mouth,’ that Jesus is Lord, and exercise faith in your heart that God raised him up from the dead, you will be saved.")
Acts 4:12 might be another one along this line: "Furthermore, there is no salvation in anyone else, for there is not another name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must get saved.”
Or
(John 14:6) . . .: “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

The next time an Elder asks about bein a mouth piece, they should be asked about
Hananiah the false prophet who claimed to be the mouth piece for Jehovah
I wonder if he could have been spared by a minor "adjustment"
NOT !!!!!!!

Naturally the elders will claim that they are not " Inspired "
That's when you can tell 'em you know, that's why your false prophets
