"Attributes of the Almighty Lesson 8-9: God is Immutible and Just," discusses two key attributes of God: His immutability (unchanging nature) and His justice (0:40).

Key points from the sermon include:

•    Understanding God better leads to better worship and self-understanding (0:11-0:19).
•    God is unchanging (Immutable): This means God cannot and will not change (0:54). Unlike human opinions, rules, or even fashion (2:54-3:26), God's character, promises, and word remain constant (11:30-14:23). This provides immense comfort, stability, and security in an inconsistent world (16:06-16:59).
•    God is just: This means God is perfectly fair and righteous (2:38-2:41). He does not play favorites, he doesn’t overlook sin, or change His mind about what is right (2:43-2:52). God's justice means He will ultimately make all things right (7:46-7:50) and that sin must be punished, which is why Jesus had to die (8:27-8:33).
•    Deuteronomy 32:4 is cited as a verse that describes God as "the Rock" (5:56-6:00), emphasizing His strength, stability, and dependability (6:25-6:34). His work is perfect, and His ways are judgment (6:03-6:07).
•    Malachi 3:6 is used to reinforce God's unchanging nature: "For I am the Lord, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed" (10:32-10:41). This highlights that because God does not change, His mercy endures, and He does not give up on His people (17:40-17:47).
•    The Cross demonstrates both God's justice and mercy: Justice is shown because sin was dealt with, and mercy is shown because it was not paid by us but by His Son, Jesus Christ (19:33-20:02, 20:16-20:29).
•    Application for believers:
•    Trust in God's justice: Don't seek revenge or try to fix everything yourself; let God handle it (21:47-22:04).
•    Rest in God's unchanging nature: When everything else in life changes, trust in God's faithfulness (22:11-22:39).
•    Reflect His character: Be consistent, honest, and fair, just as God is (22:42-23:45).
