God's unchangeableness signifies His eternal constancy in character and promise, ensuring His goodness remains.
The immutability of God means that He does not change in His nature, will, or promises. This characteristic is crucial for understanding God’s goodness; it assures believers that His mercy is not fleeting but everlasting. As noted in Malachi 3:6, 'For I am the Lord, I change not,' which reinforces the idea that God's goodness is consistently available. This provides comfort to believers, as they can trust that God's promises will always hold true, regardless of circumstances. In Christ, His unchangeable nature guarantees that His grace and mercy are continually extended to His people, solidifying our hope in Him.
