Does God’s omnipotence have any limits that are not of his own making?

Key Points from the Podcast
-
God’s power, or omnipotence, is perfect and will not contradict itself or any of God’s other attributes.
-
God, apart from Christ, does not have a physical body because he is Spirit. He exists outside the realm of space and time.
-
God is omnipresent. There isn’t any place where he isn’t present. God is everywhere at all times simultaneously.
-
God’s wrath is not limited to the Old Testament. There is a New Testament wrath that is being both revealed now and stored up until judgment day for those who reject Christ.
-
God is 100% all of his attributes. He is not more love than wrath or less justice than wisdom.
-
All of God’s attributes work in harmony with one another.
-
Deepening your understanding of God will bring you to a greater place of worship.
