- the immutability:
- "Thatª byª twoª immutableª things,ª inª whichª [it was] impossibleª for Godª to lie,ªº we might haveªº a strongª consolation,ª who² have fled for refugeªº to lay hold²º upon¹ the hopeª set before¹ us:²º" {Hbr 6:18} + "But he¹ [is] in oneª [mind], and who¹ can turnªº him? and [what] his soulª desireth,ªº even [that] he doeth.ªº ... For¹ he performethªº [the thing that is] appointedª for me: and manyª suchª [things are] with¹ him." {Job 23:13-14} + "The counselª of the LORDª standethªº 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.ªº" {Prv 19:21} + "The LORDª of hostsª hath sworn,ªº saying,ªº Surely¹¹ as¹ I have thought,ªº so¹ shall it come to pass;¹ and as¹ I have purposed,ªº [so] shall it¹ stand:ªº" {Isa 14:24} + "This¹ [is] the purposeª that is purposedªº upon¹ the whole¹ earth:ª and this¹ [is] the handª that is stretched outªº upon¹ all¹ the nations.ª ... For¹ the LORDª of hostsª hath purposed,ªº and who¹ shall disannulªº [it]? and his handª [is] stretched out,ªº and who¹ shall turn it back?ªº" {Isa 14:26-27} + "Declaringªº the endª from the beginning,ª¹ and from ancient timesª¹ [the things] that¹ are not¹ [yet] done,ªº saying,ªº My counselª shall stand,ªº and I will doªº all¹ my pleasure:ª" {Isa 46:10} + "For¹ this¹ [is as] the watersª of Noahª unto me: for¹ [as] I have swornªº that the watersª of Noahª should no more¹ go¹¹ over²º¹ the earth;ª so¹ have I swornªº that I would not be wrothªº¹ with¹ thee, nor rebukeªº¹ thee. ... For¹ the mountainsª shall depart,ªº and the hillsª be removed;ªº but my kindnessª shall not¹ departªº from¹¹ thee, neither¹ shall the covenantª of my peaceª be removed,ªº saithªº the LORDª that hath mercyªº on thee." {Isa 54:9-10} + "So¹ shall my wordª be¹ that¹ goeth forthªº out of my mouth:ª¹ it shall not¹ returnªº unto¹ me void,ª but¹¹ it shall accomplishªº¹ that which¹ I please,ªº and it shall prosperªº [in the thing] whereto¹ I sentªº it." {Isa 55:11} + "Thus¹ saithªº the LORD;ª If¹ ye can breakªº¹ 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 brokenªº with¹ Davidª my servant,ª that he should not have¹¹ a sonª to reignªº upon¹ his throne;ª and with¹ the Levitesª the priests,ª my ministers.ªº" {Jer 33:20-21} + "Thus¹ saithªº the LORD;ª If¹ my covenantª [be] not¹ with dayª and night,ª [and if] I have not¹ appointedªº the ordinancesª of heavenª and earth;ª ... Thenª will I cast awayªº the seedª of Jacob,ª and Davidª my servant,ª [so] that I will not takeªº¹ [any] of his seedª¹ [to be] rulersªº over¹ the seedª of Abraham,ª Isaac,ª and Jacob:ª for¹ I will cause¹ their captivityª to return,ªººº and have mercyªº on them." {Jer 33:25-26} + "For¹ I¹ [am] the LORD,ª I changeªº not;¹ therefore ye¹ sonsª of Jacobª are not¹ consumed.ªº" {Mal 3:6} + "Forª the¹ giftsª andª callingª of Godª [are] without repentance.ª" {Rom 11:29} + "Everyª goodª giftª andª everyª perfectª giftª isªº from above,ª and cometh downªº fromª the¹ Fatherª of lights,ª withª whomª isªº noª variableness,ª neitherª shadowª of turning.ª" {Jms 1:17}
