If so, how can he be all-powerful? But if not, then does this, too, show his power has limits?

God has self-imposed limits. He made many rocks that Jesus in his human body was incapable of lifting.

Old question.Right up there with the tree falling in the forest. Right?
He can, but the question is, why would He? as this would be the server with no purpose in the saving of your soul.
But after He made it, a blast from His nostrils, would disintegrate it, therefore leaving it lift less.

It is impossible for God to make a rock that is impossible to lift because he is all powerful. If he didn't lift it then he would be lying, which is a sin, which then means he cannot be God because God is sinless..

Let me know if you get an answer. I asked this every year in catechism class and never got a straight answer. After this we can take up the problem of evil.

I think they've been asking this question since the Middle Ages!
Anyway, just get Mithras to pick it up! He must be a strong guy since he shifted the universe about 2,000 years ago!

Well, I think the earth is one big rock and I think he is holding it up (along with all the other planets in the universe). Nope, don't think He/She can.

No for the same reason he couldn't make a square circle. Your asking an illogical question.

If He did would it prove to you that He is God? If that proved God to you would you turn your life over to Him. Would you allow Him to be Lord and Savior of your life?

infinite is infinite.
of course he can create anything, but also there is no limit of his power.
actually, he does not lift any thing.
