Perhaps even three?

If so, the Mystery of the Trinity becomes a simple matter of fact.

No, actually he can't. He's everywhere. He can't NOT be everywhere. Being in only two places would limit him.

Here's my understanding...

Imagine a sheet of paper that had sixteen tiny holes in it. How many needles would be needed to simultaneously fit through all sixteen separate holes? If you said, “sixteen,” you are thinking in terms of "ontological omnipresence.” Fold the paper in such a way that the needle can be inserted through all sixteen holes at once. This represents “functional omnipresence.” God’s power can extend everywhere throughout the universe simultaneously, even though He is physically in heaven. Even though He occupies physical space, He is functionally omnipresent because He has the power to be so.
