The Immutability of God: a Source of Comfort
Romans 11:28-29
As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the father's sakes.…


It is a source of comfort to the believer to reflect that that on which he puts his trust is established and immovable. Changes take place above and around the fortress, but its massive buttresses still stand unmoved, and its battlements frown defiance at the strength of the foe. The clouds above are fleeting past, it may be in silvery brightness, or it may be in pall-like gloom; the leaves are budding or fading, according to their seasons upon the earth but there stands the fortress, established and unchanged.

(P. B. Power, M.A.)
