What do mean by "So if you don't think God is literally all power"? God IS his Word and the Word IS God...
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. - John 1:1
That makes the Word all powerful.
Everything that was made was created by the Word...
*edit*
While we're on that subject, I should address Robvalue's nonsense..

Abiogenesis posits that life began from non life, that is all you need to know. Either you accept it or you don't...
Funny how quickly y'all are back peddling off your positions of abiogenisis (don't have me go back and pull up quotes). Y'all want me to provide DNA samples from the 'serpent' in order to prove what i'm saying, yet according to science, the way our cells work would make abiogenesis impossible, so science theorize that cells must have been different...
Why don't you guys require any samples of those?
hypocrites...

It's almost like a compulsion to disagree with anything the other guy™ says, no thought required...even if you happen to -actually- agree.....
Yet another mystery of faith, I suppose.
we do NOT believe that life arose from non-life. God IS the source of all life,
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: - John 14:6
So if God is life, and life came from God, how is it abiogenesis?
