The Doctrine of God - Immutability of God
"Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning." (James 1:17)
Since all changes are either for the better or for the worse, God is unchanging because He is perfect and cannot get better nor become worse. The Scriptures describe God's nature, will, and character as immutable or unchanging.
Illustration: To be immutable, however, does not mean to be immobile. God also has the qualities of personality and can act, think, create, and make decisions.
Application: God is unchanging; therefore, Christians can depend on His love and power, because God has not changed since biblical times.

Yes, and if you do not lose the pride and give Him the respect He ALONE deserves, you shall be the smoke he produces!
"And the smoke of their torment rises for ever and ever. "(Revelation 14:11) "..they shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death." (Rev. 21:8)
Repent while there is still time! If He could forgive ME, He certainly has grace enough for YOU TOO! :-)
