A couple things, no where does bible mention balance. Its not a question of balance but obedience, whether that makes us balanced or not means little.

Something should not be questioned if a salvation issue or not, but does it please God.

I think its great you realize your attitude stunked to high heaven as mine has as well before. May God guide you on your journey.
I agree with most of your post, but totally disagree with the concept that the Bible doesn't mention balance. The Bible speaks quite often about moderation, putting off the unnecessary standards forced on us by men, maintaining the necessary things, etc. Paul says, in fact, "let your moderation be known unto all men."

The concept of moderation and balance is extremely prevalent in the Bible.
