Maximally powerful is just the power to do literally anything that is conceivable everything the God of the Bible is said to have said/done comports with a maximally powerful god. People just use omnipotent because it's a nice shortcut (though I'm sure there are a small percentage of Christians who do think god can violate the logical absolutes and create a square circle or a married bachelor or a boulder so heavy he couldn't lift it).
Then God is not all-powerful. This argument by definition is putting a limit to God's power, what he's capable of doing, therefore we know what God cannot do.
