To elect and ordain women elders or not?

1. https://www.ministrymagazine.org/archive/1989/02/did-ellen-white-support-the-ordination-of-women
   "Her view is consistent: without calling for ordination of women as pastors or elders, she urged a vigorous participation of women especially in personal ministry."

   "Return to the biblical practice of electing and ordaining only men to the office of local elder throughout the world church, while providing for women to serve as un-ordeained church leaders under certain circumstances;"

   "The current General Conference policy on ordination of women as local church elders is stated in the 2009 Seventh-day Adventist Minister's Handbook, p. 94.
   "Elders and deacons should be persons of experience, chosen wisely. By action of the General Conference council of 1975, reaffirmed at the 1984 Annual Council, both men and women are eligible to serve as elders and receive ordination to this position of service in the church."
   NOTE: GC Council is not equivalent to GC Session.
   HOWEVER -
   The Great Controversy (1911) p. 595 says "But God will have a people upon the earth to maintain the Bible, and the Bible only, as the standard of all doctrines and the basis of all reforms.  The opinions of learned men, the deductions of science, the creeds or decisions of ecclesiastical councils, as numerous and discordant as are the churches which they represent, the voice of the majority -- not one nor all of these should be regarded as evidence for or against any point of religious faith.  Before accepting any doctrine or precept, we should demand a plain "Thus saith the Lord" in its support".
4. when influential people have voted against God's expressed will (bible + egw) regarding the sanitarium and printing press, God has intervened by burning both buildings.

7. Obeying only the prohibitions is not enough safety, we have to abide by God's prescriptions.  The reason many cannot readily agree with this is that they don't know much about God's prescriptions (words thru the prophets in the bible and sop).
8. "Since "the law of the Lord is perfect," every variation from it must be evil." {The Desire of Ages, p 308}
9. God Will Set Everything in Order {LDE 52}
