Alex, it's not true.
It's a misconception that was started in the second century by a heretic named Marcion, who Polycarp, John's disciple, called the spawn of satan himself due to his heresies like that.
Yet today we see it all over the church world.
The Law does not bring curses on people. Breaking the Law does.
Which part of the Law is evil? Which part of the Law is the part folks don't want to live by?
I'm not talking about the ceremonial laws, so I hope no one comes here and starts throwing out "don't wear polyesther and rayon" or whatever...
I'm talking about "Love God with all your heart and Love your neighbor as yourself". That's the synopsis of the entire Law... Jesus himself said it. So... how does living under that bring a curse?
