This is nonsense. Here are the verses.What is the curse of the law that Paul is speaking about
Gal 3:10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse; for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who does not continue in all things which are written in the book of the law, to do them.”
Deut 30:15 “See, I have set before you today life and good, death and evil, 16 in that I command you today to love the Lord your God, to walk in His ways, and to keep His commandments, His statutes, and His judgments, that you may live and multiply; and the Lord your God will bless you in the land which you go to possess. 17 But if your heart turns away so that you do not hear, and are drawn away, and worship other gods and serve them, 18 I announce to you today that you shall surely perish; you shall not prolong your days in the land which you cross over the Jordan to go in and possess. 19 I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live; 20 that you may love the Lord your God, that you may obey His voice, and that you may cling to Him, for He is your life and the length of your days; and that you may dwell in the land which the Lord swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give them.”
The curse is not continuing in obedience to God's commandments, which He relates as worshipping others gods. Paul speaks of this as well in Rom6:16
Jesus by His blood took the curse for us- the wages of sin is death, but does that mean we can now worship other gods, vain His holy name, bow to false images, break His holy Sabbath day. If we can continue in sin, Jesus needed not to die. Why Paul tells us to die of sin, not live in it. Those who do remains no more sacrifice Heb 10:26-30
Paul asks why those in Christ would want to continue in sin any longer Rom6:2 look what it did to Jesus at the Cross, why would anyone who loves Jesus want to continue down that path. Exo 20:6 John 14:15 1 John5:3
The blessings and curses are still there, we still can choose who we serve, which is reflected by who we obey Rom6:16
Like Joshua said:
Jos 24:15 And if it seems evil to you to serve the Lord, choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of [a]the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell. But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”
When we are not keeping the first 4 commandments of God's Testimony by default we are worshipping another god, why Jesus said in vain they worship Me, laying aside the commandments of God- quoting from the Ten Mark7:7-13 Mat 15:3-14
Our decisions will determine which path we are on and what we hear at His Second Coming. We still have choices between blessing and curses.
Revelation 22:14 Blessed are those who do His commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter through the gates into the city.
What law?
15 But outside are dogs and sorcerers (Breaking commandment #1 Exodus 20:3) and sexually immoral (breaking commandment #7 Exodus 20:14) and murderers (breaking commandment #6 Exodus 20:13) and idolaters (breaking commandment #2 Exodus 20:4-6), and whoever loves and practices a lie (breaking # 9 Exodus 20:16 or any of the commandments 1 John 2:4) Breaking one we break them all James 2:11-12 Exo 20:1-17 .
The whole Bible is about the testimony of God through His prophets and disciples. But yet when it comes to God's own personally written and spoken Testimony Exo 31:18 few believe.
Jesus is God.
John 12:48 He who rejects Me, and does not receive My words, has that which judges him— the word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day.
Why we see the ark of the covenant which holds God's Testimony revealed at the last trumpet before He returns Rev 11:18-19 Rev 15:5
“For all who are of works of the Law are under a curse; for it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not abide by all the things written in the book of the Law, to do them.” Now, that no one is justified by the Law before God is evident; for, “the righteous one will live by faith.” However, the Law is not of faith; on the contrary, “The person who performs them will live by them.” Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law, having become a curse for us—for it is written: “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree”— in order that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham would come to the Gentiles, so that we would receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.”
Galatians 3:10-14 NASB2020

The is quite the strong word that Paul uses here. Not to mention the fact that Paul even tells us that Christ REDEEMED the Christian from the curse of the law. As I asked others with no response yet, why would Jesus have to redeem the Christian from the curse of the law only to make the law necessary in the life of the Christian? Do you really not see the nonsense conclusion of your argument?
