Who is Here?

 The approaching Easter celebration has caused me to ask some questions about which ones of the Trinity are here n earth. Is it correct to say that the Holy Spirit is the only person of the Trinity that is present on the earth today?

Where is God the Father?
Psalm 47:8                           
God
reigns over the nations; God is seated on His holy throne.

Where is Jesus?
Acts 1:11
“Men of Galilee,” they said, “why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen him go into heaven.”

Where is the Holy Spirit?
John 6:7-13

7 But I tell you the truth: It is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Counselor will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you. 8 When He comes, He will convict the world of guilt in regard to sin and righteousness and judgment: 9 in regard to sin, because men do not believe in me; 10 in regard to righteousness, because I am going to the Father, where you can see me no longer; 11 and in regard to judgment, because the prince of this world now stands condemned.
   12 “I have much more to say to you, more than you can now bear. 13 But when He, the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on his own; He will speak only what He hears, and He will tell you what is yet to come.

The Holy Spirit is active in our world among believers and unbelievers.
What about God being omnipresent, everywhere at the same time?
What about Jesus saying the when two or three come together in His Name, Jesus is with them?
Both true.

How do you resolve this conflict?
Is the Holy Spirit the only person of the Trinity here on earth or is the Father and the Son still here even though the Bible says they are seated together in heaven?

Comment me with your biblical solutions.
