I believe that Dr Schaeffer's statement in point 3 (which is correct, IMHO) contradicts his statements in point 4, where he makes assumptions whose implication belie the omnipotent nature of God.
According to Dr Schaeffer:
(Point 3): "In philosophy, many errors result from supposing that the conditions and limits of our own finite existence apply to God"

Your refer to how correct and articulate point 3 is but it is wrong. Philosophers are exploring what follow from claims made about gods properties i.e if by god being omnipotent you mean ... then ... follows.
No errors about anything result from this method. They do however show that most people who talk about the omnipotence etc of god are talking nonsense.
