The duties and powers of the "Elders" in the New Testament era vastly different than the duties and powers of the "Elders" in modern day protestant churches. But if it makes it "biblical" simply because they used the word "Elder" as a religious title back then, then I will happy to point all the times the Bible uses the word "priest" as a religious title.

The priest is used much in the Old Testament. In the New Testament the application is universal; believers all become priests and there is no “some have it and some do not” status. Sounds like you aren’t the one who should be talking about staying biblical.
