The holy faith of reformed samaritanism

In all things, a man should aim at finding the healthy balance (the mid way position) 
In all things, a man should aim at finding the healthy balance (the mid way position). Thus, it is wise to avoid
all forms of extreme (fundamentalist) positions, no matter if we are talking about political, economical, 
scientific, religious, or even secular fundamentalism. In fact, the Holy scripture records King David asking 
God not to give him too much, nor too little, but just the balanced amount. As is written: 
“Give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me only food sufficient for me, lest I be full, and deny Thee, and 
say, “Who is the Lord?”— or lest I be poor and steal, and take the name of my God in vain”- Proverbs 30:8-
9. Thus, when it comes to God’s commandments, we need to find a healthy balance: neither to exaggerate 
them [pretending to obey all 613 laws], nor to totally disregard them. Rather, we must keep a healthy balance
(focusing ourselves on the obedience of the Ten Laws given to Moses upon the Two Stone Tablets). 
And the same goes with whether we should do good, or whether we should abstain from evil. Seek the 
balance! Do good (i.e., honor your parents) AND abstaining from doing evil (i.e., from cheating your 
brother). 
And the fact that the God of Israel wants the believer to experience a balanced life was also intimated by His 
Holy Law, as it would allow you to eat meat, but won’t allow you to eat ALL kind of meat (i.e., Pork); It 
would allow you to marry, But it won’t allow you to marry ALL types of people (i.e. your sister); It would 
allow you to work, but it won’t allow you to work ALL days of the week (i.e, Sabbath); It would allow you to
offer animal sacrifices, but it won’t allow you to sacrifice ALL type of animals (i.e., predators); It would 
allow you to engage on business, but it won’t allow you to engage on ALL sort of businesses (i.e., Usury). 
In short, God’s Law enjoined the believer to live a balanced life, avoiding radical extremes, as well as 
thinking in terms of “All, or Nothing”.
