Four Part Answer.First:The term omnipotent has been used to connote a number of different positions. These positions include, but are not limited to, the following: 
 * 1) An Omnipotent is able to do anything that it chooses to do.[1]
 * 2) A  Omnipotent  is able to do anything that is in accord with its own nature (thus, for instance, if it is a logical consequence of a deity's nature that what it speaks is truth, then it is not able to lie).
 * 3) Hold that it is part of a  Omnipotent 's nature to be consistent and that it would be inconsistent for said  Omnipotent  to go against its own laws unless there was a reason to do so.
 * 4) A  Omnipotent  can bring about any state of affairs which is logically or illogically possible for anyone to bring about in that situation.
 * 5) A  Omnipotent  is able to do anything that corresponds with iwhatever it wishes
 * 6) Every action performed in the world is 'actually' being performed by an  Omnipotent, either due to omni-immanence, or because all actions must be 'supported' or 'permitted' by the  Omnipotent.
 * 7) Omnipotence does not require a requirement nor proof of existance.

Second My original Pots: A being with Omnipotence is able to exist in multiple realities at the same time, each with different laws of reality, while "passing on" the abilities of the multiple realities to each version, maintaining immunity to the contradicting effects. This is how, for example, an omnipotent being can make a boulder so heavy he cannot lift it - he cannot lift it in one reality but can in another, coexisting and passing on effects, doing both, without paradox. Third (Paradox of the Paradox of the Stone) The paradox highlights cases where, in performing an action, an omnipotent being would be limiting its abilities (therefore rendering it very firmly not omnipotent); conversely if it was unable to perform such an action, it would also not be omnipotent. The paradox represents a reductio ad absurdum, with the conclusion that a truly omnipotent being cannot exist.

The most classic example of the paradox, a Morton's fork, is the "Paradox of the Stone":
 * Can an omnipotent being create a stone so heavy that it cannot lift it?

The stone paradox can be substituted with similar examples. E.g. Could an omnipotent being create another being more powerful than itself? Could an omnipotent being destroy itself? Could he create a wall he cannot climb? Could he beat himself at arm-wrestling? And so on.
 * If yes: the being's power is limited, because it cannot lift the stone.
 * If no: the being's power is limited, because it cannot create the stone.
 * Either way, the allegedly omnipotent being has proven not to be omnipotent due to the logical contradiction present in both possible answers.

Some variations gives other useful consequences:

Can an Omnipotent  create a cryptography/key exchange system so secure that he himself cannot crack/bypass ? The situation crops up numerous times in different wordings but all mean the same thing:
 * If no: He does not have the ability to authenticate any of his revelations, and therefore he lacks omnipotence, and cannot authentically reveal anything to anyone.
 * If yes: He does not have the ability to bypass encryptions therefore he lacks omnipotence and omniscience.

If you are not  omnipotent you will never be able to fully and truely understand  <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:sans-serif;font-size:12.8px;font-weight:normal;line-height:20px;">omnipotence.

<p style="margin-bottom:0.1em;"><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:sans-serif;font-size:12.8px;font-weight:normal;line-height:20px;">Though we can all try!

<p style="margin-bottom:0.1em;"> And finally:Being as Omnipotence allows multiple realities, multiple concepts with the omnipotent being literally being everything, everywhere, everytime with absolute immunity to even the undoing of absoluteness, as omnipotence exists throughout, within and in fact without concept, time and space .....paradoxes the paradoxes the paradox of trying to out-think omnipotence.An Omnipotent would never face a situation where anything could contradict or overcome it because the omnipotent, being everything, everywhere, including every individual (yes the omnipotent being is everyone too - that's part of being everything) would not contradict itself - unless its insane which is what makes for the better written fiction....Or most religions....That is the logical illogical nature of an omnipotent being not having to play by the rules because the omnipotent being.... Is the Effect that eliminates the need for the cause.'And WHY is an Omnipotent being a Pair of Ducks?'Because the Omnipotent being said so.
