But back to scripture, I did not know of a way to say I was speaking of the people who accepted God as their God and Savior. I called them "his children".

Paul was blameless according to the law, B.C.
Phl 3:4, Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more:
Phl 3:5, Circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee;
Phl 3:6, Concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless.
Of course, blameless is concerning outward behaviour; on the inside Saul, before he was Paul, had to deal on a very real level with covetousness.

For the one who has had the love of the Lord shed abroad in his heart (Romans 5:5), it is not work to obey the ten commandments. It is a natural outpouring of grace.
It comes as fruit in the believer's life (Galatians 5:22-23, esp. the end of verse 23).
If we have real love in our hearts towards our fellow man, it is not hard to obey the ten commandments. Obedience to them would come as the natural outpouring of the love of the Lord in the heart.
Love is the fulfilling of the law (Romans 13:8-10, 1 John 5:3, 2 John 1:6).
If you have righteousness, eternal life, love, joy, and peace, you will not violate the ten commandments.
The sabbath day is a type of something that Jesus fulfilled in Matthew 11:28-30. Other than that, every commandment in the ten is fulfilled when we love one another as Jesus loved us.

Jas 1:22, But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
Jas 1:23, For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:
Jas 1:24, For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.
Jas 1:25, But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.
Two of the ten commandments are included as being a part of the "perfect law of liberty".
Jas 2:10, For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.
Jas 2:11, For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law.
Jas 2:12, So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty.
My conclusion: the law of liberty is the ten commandments.
Rom 6:16, Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
Rom 6:17, But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you.
Rom 6:18, Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness.
Rom 6:19, I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness.
Rom 6:20, For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness.
Rom 6:21, What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death.
Rom 6:22, But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.
Rom 6:23, For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Subjecting one's self to the righteousness of the law is true freedom.
(as we walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit, the righteousness of the law is fulfilled in us)...Romans 8:4.

The bottom line to answering the question of if the two scriptures, the one in Galatians and the one in Psalms oppose each other. What they suggest is that the law is a curse in Galatians and the law is a blessing in Psalms. So----is the law a blessing or a curse.
I feel that the law curses those who do not have Christ in their hearts but are under the law for salvation. I feel it is a magnificent blessing to those who are under grace, who have Christ in their hearts so they are forgiven and accept the righteousness of Christ.
The law is like the guard rails on a dangerous road, it shows us where the danger is.

You seem to be a bit confused or you are on a rail and cannot comprehend what others are saying,
I doubt seriously if my posts disagree with what you appear to be correcting me on. Please, if you have not read my posts on the subject, do not respond to one as though you understaqnd. God be with you in your studies.

that’s the thing blick the law wasn’t a blessing or curse it was both a blessing if Israel obeyed but if they didn’t it would become a curse for the earth . That’s what israel did they broke the covenant and brought the curses in it on the earth
“I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:”
Deuteronomy 30:19 KJV
what israel did by constantly breaking the covenant was brought all of the terrible curses written in the law into existence
“The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant.Therefore hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate: therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left.”
Isaiah 24:5 -26KJV
God promised a new covenant to save from the curse
if anyone takes time to read Moses law it’s not hard to understand it’s not our covenant law and has become a curse through transgression
it was a blessing or curse but solely based on complete obedience or one transgression

It is true to say that God is eternal and never changes. BUT, the way He deals with man changes, does it not? Even though Jesus, the Lamb of God, framed all of creation, He was not revealed to the world until ~ 2000 years ago. Grace through Christ was not ratified until the revealing of Christ.
Furthermore, stone is juxtaposed to flesh not timeliness. One law, written on stone, leads to death and in fact is the ministry of death, whose glory is passing away. This law could only produce conformation to a set standard. The other law is written on the flesh of our hearts, our inner most being, and is the ministry of life that produces liberty. This law produces transformation that is on-going because it is dependent not upon a set outcome but upon the Life of the One who gave it: Christ. We, therefore, who are led by the Spirit, may be as steady or unpredictable as the wind because we are beholden to the One who is alive. And we, with Him, will increase in our influence just as His rule will increase int he world. There will be no end to the expansion of His rule up to the end of the world itself.

“It is true to say that God is eternal and never changes. BUT, the way He deals with man changes, does it not?”
he had to change how he works with man because if he didn’t we were dead
“And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.”
Genesis 2:16-17
at that time all of mankind was yet conceived but a make and female were created and within them was all mankind’s future. If God would have left everything the same as genesis one and two , man would have been extinct by genesis three.
because God made creation and gave man the earth he has been fixing our “ work “ on the plan because we keep transgressing. God actually is a person he’s like us has emotions, a heart that breaks for our deeds and ways of sin and death , he has great compassion towards us has since Adam wanted us to be his children, companions and friends.
he relents often in the ot , he gets very angry and decides to destroy them but the. Moses or whatever prophet are the time talks him out of it this happens a lot
it to Me at least is like we have been bucking our creators love and kindness and good instructions of life since the beginning of time and over the generations he’s growing extremely tired of it but eventually his words of destruction will come and now the New Testament we have the words of reconciliation and restoration now so we don’t experience the destruction and wrath that will eventually come
