In this thought-provoking interview, Dominic Enyart sits down with theologian Tom Burger to tackle a widely held belief: the doctrine of immutability. Is the concept that "God cannot change" truly Biblical, or did it sneak into church doctrine from pagan philosophy?

Together, they explore:

The Real Origins of Immutability:
If the Bible doesn’t teach this doctrine, where did it come from? Tom sheds light on historical influences from philosophers like Plato and Augustine, suggesting that parts of Christian theology have been shaped by Greek philosophy rather than Biblical teaching.

The Importance of Rejecting Immutability:
As Christians, should we embrace this Greek view, or is it time to break with ancient philosophy and reconsider what Scripture truly reveals about God?

Join us for this deep dive into theology and history as we question long-held assumptions and seek a more Biblically-rooted understanding of God’s character. Don’t forget to check out Tom Burger’s YouTube channel for more of his insights on faith and doctrine!
