apostle_n prove_v this_o jam._n 1._o 17._o say_v that_o with_o god_n there_o be_v no_o variableness_n nor_o shadow_n of_o turn_v there_o he_o show_v that_o god_n be_v the_o most_o indificient_a and_o unchangeable_a fountain_n and_o giver_n of_o every_o good_a thing_n he_o be_v still_o the_o same_o in_o the_o communication_n of_o his_o goodness_n god_n be_v good_a and_o have_v do_v good_a and_o manifest_v his_o bounty_n to_o man_n in_o all_o generation_n that_o be_v past_a he_o be_v still_o as_o good_a and_o bountiful_a and_o do_v do_v good_a especial_o to_o such_o as_o be_v upright_o in_o heart_n he_o be_v always_o the_o same_o there_o be_v no_o variableness_n no_o diminution_n yea_o there_o be_v not_o so_o much_o as_o a_o shadow_n of_o change_n in_o he_o far_o more_o free_a from_o any_o appearance_n of_o change_n than_o the_o sun_n from_o darkness_n or_o shadow_n of_o darkness_n heaven_n earth_n all_o creature_n be_v liable_a to_o change_v they_o shall_v all_o be_v turn_v in_o and_o out_o but_o god_n be_v the_o same_o psalm_n 102._o 26_o 27_o 28._o thou_o be_v god_n from_o eternity_n to_o eternity_n psalm_n 90._o 2._o so_o that_o phrase_n i_o be_o that_o i_o be_o show_v the_o unchangeableness_n of_o god_n in_o the_o prosecution_n of_o this_o i_o will_v show_v what_o god_n unchangeableness_n be_v wherein_o he_o be_v unchangeable_a the_o reason_n of_o the_o point●_n and_o answer_v some_o question_n or_o objection_n which_o seem_v to_o make_v against_o his_o unchangeableness_n then_o make_v use_v of_o it_o to_o be_v absolute_o and_o simple_o unchangeable_a require_v these_o property_n 1._o there_o must_v be_v no_o beginning_n for_o all_o beginning_n argue_v a_o change_n from_o a_o not_o be_v to_o a_o be_v as_o when_o a_o creature_n be_v create_v there_o be_v a_o change_n from_o a_o not_o be_v to_o a_o be_v so_o in_o generation_n that_o which_o be_v not_o a_o child_n become_v a_o child_n so_o in_o alteration_n now_o the_o lord_n have_v no_o beginning_n of_o his_o be_v he_o be_v from_o everlasting_a 2._o there_o must_v be_v no_o dissolution_n corruption_n or_o alteration_n creature_n be_v therefore_o changeable_a because_o the_o most_o noble_a of_o all_o be_v liable_a to_o annihilation_n god_n can_v turn_v angel_n into_o nothing_o the_o son_n of_o man_n into_o destruction_n heaven_n and_o earth_n shall_v wax_v old_a like_o a_o garment_n but_o now_o there_o can_v be_v no_o dissolution_n corruption_n or_o annihilation_n in_o god_n thou_o be_v god_n to_o everlasting_a 3._o there_o must_v be_v no_o addition_n nor_o diminution_n nor_o increase_v nor_o decrease_v as_o we_o see_v in_o all_o creature_n they_o may_v be_v more_o perfect_a than_o they_o be_v they_o that_o be_v glorify_v may_v and_o do_v increase_v in_o knowledge_n creature_n may_v become_v also_o less_o than_o they_o be_v as_o among_o the_o angel_n some_o of_o glorious_a angel_n become_v ugly_a devil_n of_o happy_a angel_n miserable_a devil_n of_o pure_a angel_n unclean_a spirit_n so_o man_n may_v decrease_v and_o increase_v in_o knowledge_n and_o wisdom_n in_o all_o excellency_n inward_a and_o outward_a righteous_a man_n be_v now_o become_v sinful_a he_o that_o know_v much_o be_v become_v ignorant_a so_o all_o creature_n be_v liable_a to_o alteration_n either_o to_o become_v better_a or_o worse_o but_o god_n be_v so_o perfect_a that_o he_o can_v be_v better_a or_o worse_o than_o he_o be_v so_o good_a that_o he_o can_v be_v better_a so_o wise_a that_o he_o can_v be_v more_o wise_a so_o holy_a that_o he_o can_v be_v more_o holy_a he_o can_v increase_v in_o wisdom_n and_o holiness_n etc._n etc._n and_o though_o the_o lord_n derive_v and_o communicate_v his_o bounty_n and_o goodness_n to_o the_o creature_n yet_o there_o be_v no_o diminution_n of_o it_o we_o see_v many_o thousand_o star_n derive_v their_o light_n from_o the_o sun_n yet_o the_o light_n of_o the_o sun_n be_v no_o way_n diminish_v chap._n iii_o moreover_o god_n be_v immutable_a or_o unchangeable_a all_o these_o way_n 1._o god_n be_v unchangeable_a in_o his_o be_v he_o be_v the_o same_o be_v from_o everlasting_a to_o everlasting_a i_o be_o that_o i_o be_o i_o be_o the_o same_o be_v now_o what_o i_o be_o before_o abraham_n be_v i_o be_o say_v our_o saviour_n joh._n 8._o 58._o so_o god_n may_v say_v before_o adam_n be_v i_o be_o before_o the_o foundation_n
