What are the Characteristics of a NT Christian?

God is a spirit and likes to sit in a chair. Good thing you believe he can only do the 'actually possible' or who knows what sleight of reality you'd have him doing.

Your definition of omnipresent is off. The idea is that God is aware of all points in the physical universe--not that he is in them.

You're saying omnipresence but you're describing omniscience. As I said, you seem to be describing a deity much like Odin sitting on he throne observing the universe (all the realms). It's an unorthodox position for a Christian, most seem to prefer to think of God as an omnipresent spirit (literally everywhere), but I think that view has little Biblical support when you get down to it, I'm surprised more believers don't jettison omnipresence; it's not an essential attribute for a theodic deity.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
