You are correct, just because the U.S refuses to use nuclear weapons does not mean they are not a great nuclear power. However, if you are trying to apply the argument it would sound a little more like this: The U.S can't use nuclear weapons (because they don't have them), therefore are not a great nuclear power.
You are also correct, it has nothing to do with omniscience. Omniscience means he is all knowing, it has nothing to do with power. You are correct again refusing to abuse power does not negate omniscience, it negates omnipotence. It has everything to do with Omnipotence. And you are telling me to study scripture?
You're correct used the wrong omni, so replace omniscience with omnipotent.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
