1. His Nature is unchangeable, Thou art the same for ever, Ps. 102. 27. The Heavens though they be the purest, and therefore the most durable and unchangeable part of the creation; yet they shall perish and wax old, and be changed as a vesture, but our God is the same for ever.
2. His power is unchangeable, Isa. 59. 1. The Lords hand is not shortened. Time will enfeeble the strongest creature, and cut short the Power of the hands of the mighty, they cannot do in their decrepit age as they were wont to do in their youthful and vigorous age; but the Lords hand never is, nor can be shortened.
3. The counsels and purposes of his heart are unchangeable, Psal. 33. 11. The counsel of the Lord standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
