This post is made because I saw a comment that says jesus can destroy Goku with a word in r/PowerScaling. Also, if I make some mistakes in here, feel free to correct me.
If god can do that, then why doesn't he in the countless opportunities he gets? Now, I never died myself but I doubt drowning to death or slowly dying from plagues would be pleasant nor merciful, yet god, the (self proclaimed) definition of *love* chose that instead of simply erasing people like Zeno from Dragonball Super.
God only seems to have powers relating to "creation." Think about it. Every time he decides to do something, he creates something to do it for him. (Angels, flood, etc)
This would also explain the tree of good of evil, because if he cannot destroy and only create, the tree wouldn't be able to be destroyed so he left it there with a warning to not eat from it.
He does seem to have powers other than creation, like hardening hearts or killing sons, but nothing that suggests omnipotence. Also, where does it outright say god is omnipotent? A google search revealed people just *presumed* he is omnipotent. No verses say he is (such as "god is love" or "i dont lie").
And even if they interpreted it correctly, there is still no proof but god's own word that he is omnipotent. (if you say god can't lie in the comments, let me remind you god is the one who said it, he's confirming his own innocence).
