I don't have that perfected knowledge. God does. Therefore, when he does thing that seem miraculous, he is really just operating under those same laws that you and I operate under. But with a better understanding of those laws, he can do a lot cooler stuff.
And all I'm trying to say is I believe he does.
I think people tend to misunderstand what "all-powerful" means. I see it more as meaning "being able to do everything that it is possible to do," and not "being able to do the impossible." It's not possible (in my beliefs) for God to step outside of the laws of nature.
Matt 19:26 " with men this is impossible, but with God
all things are possible."
Mark 10:27 " with men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God
all things are possible."
Mark 14:36 " ...
all things are possible unto thee..."
Luke 1:37 " with God
nothing is impossible"
Luke 18:27 "the things which are impossible to men are possible to God"
I tend to believe what Jesus said.
And about all-powerfull: Mr Webster says"absolute power, omnipotent,almighty"
absolute: perfect in quality or nature; complete. not limited by restrictions or exceptions. unqualified in extent or degree. unconstrained by constitutional or other provisions. not to be doubted or questioned.
So according to our Lord and finisher of our faith and the father of our most reputable dictionary, both tend to agree with what I said about God not being bound by the laws that he created.
With God there are no predictions or 'educated guesses' he is the beginning and the end of all that is or was or ever will be. He is at the creation and armageddon all at once. If he chose to make a square and call it a triangle he could. If he decided to make two magnets the size of the span of eternity, all he would have to do is speak and they would separate. We put names on things and come up with limits for our own good. With God there are no limits physical or spiritual. And when I said God does not live in the physical realm. What I meant was: His physical body is not here, he is in Heaven on the throne. The Holy Spirit is here on the earth to convict us of our sins and give us power in the name of Jesus. His power is just as real physically as it is spiritually.
