I just noticed something that seems a little odd.
Q4 of the Westminster Shorter Catechism defines God as: “a Spirit, infinite, eternal, and unchangeable, in his being, wisdom, power, holiness, justice, goodness, and truth.”
But this definition leaves out two key unchangeable elements in God’s character namely his love and his grace, both of which are mentioned in WCF 1:2.
Does anybody know if there was a specific reason why the Divines left these attributes out of the reply to WSC Q4?
