Cycle Of Judgement In Dr Jones

Both versions of the cycle of judgement described in The Drama of Scripture and by Dr. Jones are both very important cycles that can help us understand and see Gods mercy. The cycles both have the same basic ideas and steps. There are many examples of this in the bible where we can see where this cycle is occurring.

In The Drama of Scripture, the cycle of judgement is described as a seven-step process. It begins with committing a sin or someone turning their back on God. God then gets angered by this sin and punishes the people for it. Following God's anger and punishment, the people then cry back out to God and repent so that he will help them from the punishment he has set upon them. God then mercifully answers this call and gives aid to the people. He allows them back into his grace

Although his people sin and stray away from him, he still allows them to come back into his grace. By doing this, he gives them another chance to have eternal life through him and live a life following God's rules. This shows how truly merciful god is even when people turn his their backs on him.

Instead of denying his sins, he owns up to them and immediately repents to the lord and ask for forgiveness. David even writes a song found in Psalm 51. David is truly sorry for his actions and lays himself before God. By doing this, God forgives him for his
