- the immutability:
- "Thatª byª twoª immutableª things,ª inª whichª [it was] impossibleª for Godª to lie,ª° we might haveª° a strongª consolation,ª who² have fled for refugeª° to lay hold²° upon¹ the hopeª set before¹ us:²°" {Hbr 6:18} + "But he¹ [is] in oneª [mind], and who¹ can turnª° him? and [what] his soulª desireth,ª° even [that] he doeth.ª° ... For¹ he performethª° [the thing that is] appointedª for me: and manyª suchª [things are] with¹ him." {Job 23:13-14} + "The counselª of the LORDª standethª° for ever,ª the thoughtsª of his heartª to allª generations.ª" {Psa 33:11} + "[There are] manyª devicesª in a man'sª heart;ª nevertheless the counselª of the LORD,ª that¹ shall stand.ª°" {Prv 19:21} + "The LORDª of hostsª hath sworn,ª° saying,ª° Surely¹¹ as¹ I have thought,ª° so¹ shall it come to pass;¹ and as¹ I have purposed,ª° [so] shall it¹ stand:ª°" {Isa 14:24} + "This¹ [is] the purposeª that is purposedª° upon¹ the whole¹ earth:ª and this¹ [is] the handª that is stretched outª° upon¹ all¹ the nations.ª ... For¹ the LORDª of hostsª hath purposed,ª° and who¹ shall disannulª° [it]? and his handª [is] stretched out,ª° and who¹ shall turn it back?ª°" {Isa 14:26-27} + "Declaringª° the endª from the beginning,ª¹ and from ancient timesª¹ [the things] that¹ are not¹ [yet] done,ª° saying,ª° My counselª shall stand,ª° and I will doª° all¹ my pleasure:ª" {Isa 46:10} + "For¹ this¹ [is as] the watersª of Noahª unto me: for¹ [as] I have swornª° that the watersª of Noahª should no more¹ go¹¹ over²°¹ the earth;ª so¹ have I swornª° that I would not be wrothª°¹ with¹ thee, nor rebukeª°¹ thee. ... For¹ the mountainsª shall depart,ª° and the hillsª be removed;ª° but my kindnessª shall not¹ departª° from¹¹ thee, neither¹ shall the covenantª of my peaceª be removed,ª° saithª° the LORDª that hath mercyª° on thee." {Isa 54:9-10} + "So¹ shall my wordª be¹ that¹ goeth forthª° out of my mouth:ª¹ it shall not¹ returnª° unto¹ me void,ª but¹¹ it shall accomplishª°¹ that which¹ I please,ª° and it shall prosperª° [in the thing] whereto¹ I sentª° it." {Isa 55:11} + "Thus¹ saithª° the LORD;ª If¹ ye can breakª°¹ my covenantª of the day,ª and my covenantª of the night,ª and that there should not¹ be¹ dayª and nightª in their season;ª ... [Then] may also¹ my covenantª be brokenª° with¹ Davidª my servant,ª that he should not have¹¹ a sonª to reignª° upon¹ his throne;ª and with¹ the Levitesª the priests,ª my ministers.ª°" {Jer 33:20-21} + "Thus¹ saithª° the LORD;ª If¹ my covenantª [be] not¹ with dayª and night,ª [and if] I have not¹ appointedª° the ordinancesª of heavenª and earth;ª ... Thenª will I cast awayª° the seedª of Jacob,ª and Davidª my servant,ª [so] that I will not takeª°¹ [any] of his seedª¹ [to be] rulersª° over¹ the seedª of Abraham,ª Isaac,ª and Jacob:ª for¹ I will cause¹ their captivityª to return,ª°°° and have mercyª° on them." {Jer 33:25-26} + "For¹ I¹ [am] the LORD,ª I changeª° not;¹ therefore ye¹ sonsª of Jacobª are not¹ consumed.ª°" {Mal 3:6} + "Forª the¹ giftsª andª callingª of Godª [are] without repentance.ª" {Rom 11:29} + "Everyª goodª giftª andª everyª perfectª giftª isª° from above,ª and cometh downª° fromª the¹ Fatherª of lights,ª withª whomª isª° noª variableness,ª neitherª shadowª of turning.ª" {Jms 1:17}
