You may remember a while ago we looked at the immutability of God, that is, the doctrine that God does not change, and indeed cannot change. We saw three particular areas in which God is unchanging: his personhood, his purposes, and his promises. Because God is unchanging it follows logically, and more importantly, it follows biblically, that God is also faithful.
Let’s face it: the word immutability is not in any danger of being overused. By that I mean that it is not a standard part of our vocabulary. It is, however, a very important aspect of Christian theology as it is one of the attributes of God. Taking these two facts into account, the first negative, and the second positive, it should be fairly obvious that before we can do anything else, we must define the word immutable.
