This refers to God’s unchanging character—His unchangeableness (Mal. 3:6; {vi 29976;30250}Heb. 1:12; 13:8; James 1:17). It is an attribute essential to deity. In connection with the Lord’s dealings with Abraham, there are two things that are said to be unchangeable: the Word of God’s promise, and the oath that He made ({vi 30062-30063}Heb. 6:17-18).
