CAN God do the the logically impossible? Why / why not?

I have found nowhere in the Bible does it remotely indicate that He is not able to do the logically impossible.
The Bible basically says that what is impossible with man is possible with God. There is a notable lack of exception to what is possible with God in the verse(s).

Can man do the logically impossible? I think no, because man would then do something God could not, which is attack on God's power, and an insult to Him.

We can concieve the "logically impossible", and if the Ontological argument can support God's existence, it can absolutely support God's ability to do logically impossible things like make a square circle. So how come we can theorize and stuff about "logically impossible" yet somehow, God Who is INFINITELY POWERFUL can't make such? Sounds unbelievable.

If God wanted us to think there were things He actually couldn't, wouldnt He put it in the Bible?

I argue that He can because He is absolutely powerful. The only limits He has, He had on Himself. He can choose to 'break' these limits.

A God Who can do anything, logically possible or not logically possible, or something(s) else, is more powerful than One only limited to logically possible, right?

I am wary of this belief that appears to be "Weakening God" , in disguise. It really feels like humans trying to limit God with false knowledge and limited understanding.

Thanks for answering.
Praise Jesus our Savior!
