One of the following MUST be true
Unfortunately we don't know which one IS true.
BTW, omnipotent means all powerful. Are you wanting to include omniscient, which means all knowing?
IOW, omnipotent (all powerful), omniscient (all knowing), and infallible.
If you include omniscient in your statements, then the Bible supports that God did not have an all inclusive plan and limited omniscience.
2 Samuel 6:6-7
When they came to the threshing floor of nacon, Uzzah reached out and took hold of the ark of God, because the oxen stumbled. The LORD's anger burned against Uzzah because of his irreverent act; therefore God struck him down and he died there beside the ark of God.
An all-knowing-down-to-the-minute-details God would not have an anger response because he already knew what was going to happen.
So in choice number 2, his omniscience would be limited to a general overview along with his plan.
What do you think?
