CHAPTER ELEVEN. On the immutability of God.

Thus far there has been the third attribute of God, namely simplicity: there follows the fourth, namely immutability, which is God's highest perfection, by which He always remains the same as He isIMMUTABILITY, which certain Greeks render as unchangeableness, is expressed from the sacred letters not by a distinct word, but by like and opposite words of power.

Latin

CAPUT UNDECIMUM, De immutabilitate Dei. Adhuc fuit tertium Dei attributum, nempe simplicitas: sequitur quartum, nimirum immutabilitas, quae est summa Dei perfectio, qua semper manet idem, qui est. IMMUTABILITAS, quam Graeci quidam atrepsian reddunt, e sacris literis non disertim, sed similibus et oppositis potentiae vocibus exprimitur.
