Comment on Northern California Conference Votes to Act Independent of the General Conference by Jody Johnson.

The disagreement is whether WO is policy, conscience, or doctrine. Hermeneutics method affects doctrine. To see WO in the bible takes a hermeneutics twist, in my opinion (as Shinn says — hermeneutics through unique SDA Sanctuary lens or Evangelical lens (that crept into SDA theology in 60s). I was attracted into the SDA church because of solid hermeneutics and doctrines from the Evangelical hermeneutics world. See links:

Attending Secrets Unsealed Summit next week at Yosemite Tenaya Lodge. Should be very interesting: Stephen Bohr, Norman McNulty (one founder of Advent Hope/GYC), Ed Reid, Dr. James Marcum. The issue is more than WO. I appreciate your thoughts and posts.

Northern California Conference Votes to Act Independent of the General Conference
@Sean Pitman:

My evidence that God’s order is a family with the father as the head, loving and supporting his helpmate and both nuturing and growing the children — men ordanined, women as helpmates, and both nurturing and growing the church — is the reality of what has happened to men, women, and our society since women were “ordainted” in our society. I don’t like the results; and I prefer God’s order. I can’t believe how many “in-tact” and successfully functioning SDA families nurturing successful children want to try the experiment of “women’s ordination” in the SDA society. In the public society, we are to the point of a mother asking her child, “Do you think you are a boy or girl? (with doctors ready to fulfill the answer)” and therefore, “Which restroom shall you use today?” Public elementary schools are facing this legal-mandated downhill slide. I think SDA women should submit to God’s order as a “firewall” to society’s slide. Having the strength to submit and serve as God’s firewall takes great faith and trust in God. Women have a powerful role to play in our society — in fulfilling the role God created for women — helpmate. That takes the real guts today. I view it similar to Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane — “Yet not as I will, but as You will.”
