Nothing which implies contradiction falls under the omnipotence of God.
Thomas Aquinas (1225–1274). Summa Theologica. Question 25. Article 3.
Alternatively
Whatever implies contradiction does not come within the scope of divine omnipotence.

Is this in regards to the various paradoxes omni-qualities create?
