>God being all powerful is a fundamental misunderstanding of the Bible
>earlier christians likely did not believe in divine omnipotence
>Nothing in the Bible speaks for God being all powerful
>The sacrifice of Jesus means literally nothing if he is also a completely omnipotent God
This is what happens when Reddit-tier midwits try to cosplay as biblical scholars. You're vomiting out modernist cope in a desperate attempt to project your own philosophical illiteracy onto 2000 years of unbroken Church teaching.

>God isn't all-powerful
Cool story. Now open a fucking Bible.
>Genesis 17:1 --> “I am God Almighty.”
>Job 42:2 --> “I know that you can do all things, and that no purpose of yours can be thwarted.”
>Matthew 19:26 --> “With God all things are possible.”
>Revelation 19:6 --> “The Lord God omnipotent reigneth.”
You'd have to be blind, retarded, or Anglican to miss the point.

>Early Christians didn't believe in omnipotence
Early Christians died for believing in the divinity and sovereign power of Christ. Ignatius of Antioch literally calls Him “God the Word” who “has all power.” You’re confusing your Gnostic fanfics with actual history. Try reading real Church Fathers instead of whatever horseshit Karen Armstrong sold you.

>The sacrifice means nothing if He’s omnipotent
This is peak Reddit theology. The sacrifice means everything because He’s omnipotent. God choosing to suffer voluntarily, when He had infinite power, is what gives it infinite value. A limited being suffering is just tragedy. God suffering is redemption. The cross only matters because He could’ve snapped reality in half instead. That was the point, you retard.
