1848, Arthur Crihfield, The Universaliad, page 94:[…] the God that we serve is not free: / There must be an attribute superalmighty / That binds even God what he knows to decree!
1883, Alexander Wilford Hall, Universalism Against Itself: A Scriptural Analysis of the Doctrine, Hall, page 271:It not only binds man to an unalterable, destiny, irrevocably marked out millions of ages before Adam was created, by postulating the immutable foreknowledge of God which knows no disappointment and makes such foreknowledge the same as forordination; but it also chains down the Almighty Jehovah with the fetters of foreknowing every event, and thus giving him a certain amount of knowledge, which he can neither add to nor diminish from: in fact, it binds all his other attributes to the same point of unchangeable necessity; and thus we have the Father of spirits deprived of volition, and every thing like freedom of thought and action, hand-cuffed perfectly by this overruling system of superAlmighty fatalism!
c. 1955, “Paper 116”, in The Urantia Book:Some believe that, when the superuniverses are settled in light and life, the Supreme will become functional from Uversea as the almighty and experiential sovereign of the grand universe while expanding in power as the superalmighty of the outer universes.
1965, Charles E. Passage, Faust, Bobbs-Merrill, translation of original by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, published 1980, line 3057, page 107:Then comes eternal faith, and love still higher, / Then comes the super-almighty [translating überallmächt'gem] desire — / Will that be heartfelt too, I inquire?
