In an op-amp, why does Vn approach Vp until the difference is delta V / A? Why doesn't Vn just equal Vp?

In an op-amp (non-inverting), like this picture

when Vs increases by delta_v, Vn approaches Vp until the difference is delta_v / A (where A is infinity).

Why is there the delta_v / A difference and where does this difference come from? Why does it equal the specific value delta_v / A? Why doesn't V_n just equal V_p (so that the difference is 0)?
