(uncountable, usually) The state or quality of being immutable; immutableness.
But, one might ask, how can the temporal event of God in our midst be the same as God's event to himself in his eternity if so absolute a distinction is drawn between the enarrable contents of history and the "eternal dynamism" of God's immutability, apatheia, and perfect fullness?
2004, David Bentley Hart, The Beauty of the Infinite: The Aesthetics of Christian Truth, page 159:
- (uncountable, usually) The state of being unchangeable in the memory after creation.
