Good point, I didn't catch that because I was focusing on omniscience. God's omnipotence implies that he can perform any possible action. He can't perform an action that calls for a contradiction of terms. He cannot make something be and not be at the same time, he cannot make a square-circle, he cannot make a stone that he cannot lift. The inabiity to perform actions that contradict his characteristics also don't count against his omniscience (eg. creating a stone he cannot lift, performing an evil action- God's free will v. God's goodness, etc.)

Not true, as what is possible or not were rules designed by him, and being omnipotent means that he could change the rules, else he's not really omnipotent and there's an isntance higher than himself.
