Gods being all powerful does not make sense

if they are all power ful then they should be able to create an object that they cannot move but if they are all powerful they should be able to move it .

Also doesn't help with the problem of evil as well. If Gods are omnipotent and omnibenevolent, then why don't they banish all evil from the world?

This world is a deception of what’s to come. You cannot have all good and no bad then where’s the initial examination?

This world is an exam centre, the goodness only exist in the hear after.

It was a game of "my god's more powerful than yours" that got out of hand.

They're often claimed to know the future and, in some cases, to have created the (now) evil entities. They must like it.

That would mean the God isn't omnibenevolent which surely goes against the concept of all Gods since being omnibenevolent is pretty much a universal trait (at least for a philosophical God) as to what a God is.

I didn’t know all Gods were meant to be all powerful.
If a God wishes to remain all powerful it might be a good idea if it didn’t make things it couldn’t move.
Because otherwise Mrs God or the cleaner might be annoyed when they’re doing the cleaning .
(That’s not sexist I just assume God doesn’t do cleaning )

There's centuries of counter-argument to that argument.

You completely missed the point. I was highlighting your comical misspelling.
