you call it the Law of Moses,
Law of Moses = Law of God given to the Israelites through Moses.
You still haven't answered my question: Did you add the word CURSE just to match your theology?

You've got things WAY mixed up in your head.Yes, how could it mean the beleive is not to follo it when Paul himself says to follow it:
Romans 3:28, "For we maintain that a person is justified by faith apart from the works of the Law."
Romans 3:31, "Are we then doing away with the Law through the faith? By no means! Rather, we establish the Law!"
Acts 24:14, "But I confess this to you, that after the way which they call heresy, so I (Paul) worship the Father of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the Law and in the Prophets."
Romans 7:25, "Thanks be to YHWH, I have deliverance through Yahshua Messiah our King! So then, with this same mind, I myself serve the Law of YHWH, while in the flesh that is yet subject to the law of sin."
Acts 21:24, "Take them, and be purified with them, and pay their expenses so that they may shave their heads. Then everyone will know that those things they were informed about you (forsaking the Law), were lies, and that you (Paul), yourself, walk orderly, and keep the Law."
1 Corinthians 7:19, "For neither circumcision counts for anything nor uncircumcision, but keeping the commandments of Yah?"
Romans 6:1-2, "What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound? By no means! How can we who died to sin still live in it?"
1 John 3:4, "Whoever commits sin, transgresses also the Law; for sin is the transgression of the Law."
Romans 7:7, Shall we therefore say that the Law is sin? No! By no means! But to the contrary, I did not know sin; transgression of the Law, except through the Law, for I did not know lust, unless the Law had said: Do not covet."
Romans 7:12, "Therefore the Law is holy, and the commandments are holy, and just, and righteous."
Ephesians 6:2-3, "Honor your father and mother; which is the first commandment with a promise: That it may be well with you, and you may live long on the earth."
Maybe Paul is confused in you view? IDK, but I know for sure what Yahshua says:
Revelation 12:17, “And the dragon was enraged with the woman, and he went to fight with the remnant of her seed, those guarding the Commands of יהוה and possessing the Witness of יהושעMessiah."
Revelation 14:12-13, “Here is the endurance of the set-apart ones, here are those guarding the Commands of יהוה and the Belief of יהושע. And I heard a voice out of the heaven saying to me, Write, Blessed are the dead who die in the Master from now on. Yes, says the Spirit, in order that they rest from their labors, and their works follow with them.”
Exodus 20:6, “But showing love to thousands who love Me by keeping My Laws.”
John/Yahanan 14:15, “If you love Me, keep My commandments.”
John 14:23-24, "יהושע answered him, “If anyone loves Me, he shall guard My Word. And My Father shall love him, and We shall come to him and make Our home with him. He who does not love Me does not guard My Words. And the Word which you hear is not Mine but of the Father Who sent Me.”
Hebrews 13:7-8, “Remember those leading you, who spoke the Word of יהוה to you. Consider the outcome of their behavior and imitate their belief. יהושע Messiah is the same yesterday, and today, and forever.”
Not trying to be rude but I know you have Yahshua/Jesus changing, but it says: "Messiah is the same yesterday, and today, and forever"
Mat 5:18, "I say to you; Unless heaven and earth passes away, one yodh; the smallest of the letters will in no way pass from the Law, until all things are perfected."
Revelation 21:1, "I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away."
Mat 24:35, “Heaven and earth may pass away, but My teachings will not pass away.”
Luke 16:16-17, "The Law and the Prophets were until John, since that time the Kingdom of YHWH is preached, and every man is pressed to enter it. But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one yodh of the Law to fail."
Daniyl 7:25, "And he will speak great words against YHWH, and will wear out; mentally attack to cause to fall away, the saints of YHWH, and think to change times and Laws…"
Law of Moses = Law of God given to the Israelites through Moses.
You still haven't answered my question: Did you add the word CURSE just to match your theology?
Galatians 2:19-21
19 For I through the law am dead to the law, that I might live unto God.
20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.
If you google Paul false apostle you'll get hundreds of thousands of results. Of course, not all results contain opinions against Paul, but I estimate that at least half of them state that he departed from the true gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.
There are also those who don't go to the extreme of calling Paul a false apostle, but regard him as "not completely reliable".
Is there any reason for us to think that Paul's authority is questionable?

If Christians were supposed to keep the Law most of Paul's letters would be completely different.
It's obvious that the Gentiles had absolutely no clue on how to keep the Mosaic law. Even for modern day Christians, who have pocket/purse sized Bibles, it is impossible to keep the whole Law, let alone primitive Gentile Christians. They would need many scrolls containing the Pentateuch translated from Hebrew to their languages, or it would be necessary to put together new books especially designed to help Gentiles keep the Law.
Paul would have gone straight to the point in his letters, saying something like:"Brethren, now that I have provided you with translated copies of the first five books of the Tanakh, read them thoroughly and do not disregard any yodh or tittle from them because the Lord Jesus said no to".
So here we are today, the same serpent with the same desire using the same tactic, using parts of God's Word to make people disobey God.
You have a corrupt bible version so I always have to go back and see what the bible REALLY says when you post.1 Corinthians 9:1-4, "9:1, "Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Have I not seen Jesus our Lord? Are not you my workmanship in the Lord?"9:2, "If to others I am not an apostle, at least I am to you, for you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord."9:3, "This is my defense to those who would examine me."9:4, "Do we not have the right to eat and drink?"
Romans 7:25, "Thanks be to YHWH, I have deliverance through Yahshua Messiah our King! So then, with this same mind, I myself serve the Law of YHWH, while in the flesh that is yet subject to the law of sin."
Acts 21:24, "Take them, and be purified with them, and pay their expenses so that they may shave their heads. Then everyone will know that those things they were informed about you (forsaking the Law), were lies, and that you (Paul), yourself, walk orderly, and keep the Law."
Romans 7:12, "Therefore the Law is holy, and the commandments are holy, and just, and righteous."
Do you keep all 613 commandments of Moses? Of course you don't. You don't even obey the commandments given by Jesus Christ when He was on earth. Have you already sold your possession and given the money to the poor? Of course not! If you had you wouldn't be able to log in.
I am absolutely sure you don't even keep the Sabbath properly, let alone the whole Law.
Your scorn does noting to erase the truth in the post I sent you. There has never been 613 laws that God instructed me to keep.
I'm not scorning you -- I'm just saying that nobody on this planet keeps the law of Moses.
What is fascinating to me is that the serpent's desire was to make Eve disobey God by using God's Own Words. Not all of them mind you, just enough to make its lie seem logical. The Bible says there is no new thing under the sun.
So here we are today, the same serpent with the same desire using the same tactic, using parts of God's Word to make people disobey God. Not all of God's Word mind you, because when you consider all of God's Word, disobedience to God is the reason for His Wrath in the first place. Even Paul knew how essential following God's Instructions are.
Rom. 2:11 For there is no respect of persons with God.12 For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law;
13 (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.
Everybody keeps some of God’s Commandments, your statement is patently false.
Ok, let me edit my statement:
The law of Moses is all or nothing -- you can't disregard any single mitzvah.
Again, do you known any person on this planet who keeps the WHOLE law of Moses?
you can't disregard any single mitzvah.
if you keep reading the letter of Romans, Paul says in the next chapter - '' for no person shall be justified in His sight by the works of the law " chapter 3,v.20, and 21 for that matter.
this cut and paste , with no context and chronological order, is just noise. and attempted ( fail ) deception.
most of us read letters from front to back. I guess needs to study man does not??
