Hie. Does sound biblical christianity advocate for the autonomy of the local church or presybetary/synodical setup?

Church demoncracy can be interesting. For example at an assembly 45 per cent can vote for women priesthood. What do do☺️

Its hard to navigate past what a city should look like. Congregations appear to collect elders for important meetings called councils. That much is biblical and was done in Jerusalem. With numbers increased if a presbyter was setup as a intermittent between a council meeting I would see justification for such a thing however its not biblically authoritative. Past a council historically outside of scripture something called a conference was done I believe 2 times in the early churches collectively around the Mediterranean.
