chezlaw: Let me clear it up to you with a common example:

"If God can do anything (is omnipotent), can He create a rock so heavy that He wouldn't be able to lift?"

There are 2 ways He could do this:

1) By creating a heavy rock, then altering his powers so that He would no longer be able to lift that rock.

2) By creating a rock with a weight that is outside of his omnipotence radious.

Number 2) needs an explanation: His omnipotence is only so for everything that already exists, but He can create something else, where His own powers are not enough.

In both examples, he would cease to be omnipotent once He did that. But that doesn't mean that He's not omnipotent now; only if He were to do that.
