God’s Immutability is taught all throughout Scripture and is a key attribute. God does not change in his being, perfections, purposes, or promises.

God’s Immutability and Consistency- Sam Storms

Jayne O’Conner said, “I grew up thinking that someone was watching over me. I feel alittle less watched over now.” She was talking about the Old Man of the Mountain, a 40-foot tall natural outcropping of granite ledges in the White Mountains of NewHampshire, which looked like the profile of an old man.

Two hundred years ago Nathaniel Hawthorn wrote a famous story about it: “The GreatStone Face.” The image was on New Hampshire license plates and quarters and abouta million souvenirs; it was the official state emblem.

Sometime on May 1 or 2, 2003, in a heavy fog, the 700-ton face fell. It broke apart and slid down the mountain in the dark.

Steven Heath, one of the residents of nearby Franconia Notch, said, “It’s somethingthat has been a part of our lives forever. At first it was disbelief. No one could believehe came down. It’s like a member of your family dying.” Another man said, “I’m absolutely devastated by this. It makes you wonder if God is unhappy with what is going on.”

There are times when it seems the most dependable, reliable presence in your lifedisappears into the fog in the middle of the night. The next morning, that “mountain”you’ve depended on is gone, and “it makes you wonder if God is unhappy.”But the Bible teaches again and again there is only one Rock that will never crumble:“Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today and forever.” (Hebrews 13:8)Source: “Visitors Mourn Loss of N.H.
