Nu skal man ikke forledes til at tro, at Jehovas Vidner tror på dette skriftsted trods alle deres påhæftede superlative her. Nej, for tager vi teksten i sammenhæng er der så stor en kløft mellem det der står og så det Jehovas Vidner tror.
Det vil jeg forklare (jeg citere lige hvad det egentlig talt er der star):
1 O LORD, thou hast asearched me, and bknown me.
2 Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my athought afar off.
3 Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and artaacquainted with all my ways.
4 For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether.
5 Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.
6 Such aknowledge is too bwonderful for me; it is high, I cannotattain unto it. 7
Whither shall I go from thy aspirit? or whither shall I flee from thy bpresence?
8 If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed inahell, behold, thou art there.
9 If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;
10 Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.
11 If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me.
12 Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee.
13 For thou hast apossessed my reins: thou hast bcovered me in my mother’s womb.
14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
15
My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth
16
Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy abook all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.
17 How precious also are thy athoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!
18 If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee.
19 Surely thou wilt aslay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloody men.
20 For they aspeak against thee wickedly, and thine enemies takethy name in bvain.
21 Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee?
22 I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.
23 Search me, O God, and know my heart: atry me, and know my thoughts:
24 And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.

Nu skal man ikke “lalle” sig ind I den tro, at Jehovas Vidner er enig i ovennævnte skriftsted:
Ja, men hvad tror Jehovas Vidner så?
God Is a Person
Jesus spoke about
Jehovah’s dwelling place when he said to his disciples: “In the house of my father there are many abodes. . . . I am going my way to prepare a place for you.” (John 14:2)
Where did Jesus go? Eventually, he “entered . . . into heaven itself, now to appear before the person of God for us.” (Hebrews 9:24)
This account teaches us two important facts about
Jehovah God.
First, he has a literal place of dwelling, and second,
he is a person, not simply an indefinable force that resides everywhere. (det var interessant)
That is why Jesus taught his followers to pray this way: “Our Father in the heavens,” directing their prayers to a person, Jehovah, who is in a place, namely, the spiritual heavens. (Matthew 6:9; 12:50)
This teaching was consistent with the way God’s people had been taught to pray for more than 1,500 years. The oldest writings inspired by God contain the following prayer:
“Do look down from your holy dwelling, the heavens, and bless your people.”—Deuteronomy 26:15.

God’s All-Reaching Holy Spirit.
While the Bible always refers to
God as having a specific dwelling place, it often speaks of his holy spirit in ubiquitous terms. “Where can I go from your spirit, and where can I run away from your face?” asked the psalmist David. (Psalm 139:7)
Some have been
confused by such references and may conclude that God is omnipresent.
Yet, when considering the context of this and other texts,
it becomes clear that Jehovah’s holy spirit—or power in action—can be extended from his fixed location to any place in the material universe.
Like a father’s hand extending down to console and support his children, Jehovah’s hand—or holy spirit—can extend to any part of the spiritual realm or the physical universe to accomplish Jehovah’s purpose.
Hence, the psalmist could say: “Were I to take the wings of the dawn, that I might reside there in the most remote sea, there, also, your own hand would lead me and your right hand would lay hold of me.”—Psalm 139:9, 10.

Her gik vi og fik den opfattelse, at Jehovas Vidner først havde besluttet, at Jehova boede på Pleiaderne, men jeg kan se, at Jehova er flyttet et andet sted hen og at Jehova selv ikke ”kommer til mennesker”, men sender sin hellige ånd eller
kraft (elektricitet) derhen hvor det er ønsket.

Ja, ja sådan er der jo så meget.
Så det er ikke Gud der er ”allestedsnærværende”, men det er ”den hellige ånd”, altså
Jehovas kraft (elektricitet).
Jeg er naturligvis af en hel anden mening (tro):
http://www.sol.dk/debat/240-religion-a-livssyn/2771756-hvem-gud-eller-guder/2771790
Jeremias 23: 23 Am I
a God at hand, saith the Lord, and
not a God afar off?
24 Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? saith the Lord.
Do not I fillheaven and earth? saith the Lord.
http://www.sol.dk/debat/240-religion-a-livssyn/2771756-hvem-gud-eller-guder/2771790
Nu har jeg ingen problemer med, at Gud er tilstede ved Helligånden, for Helligånden = JHVH
Gud er altså Omnipresent.
Det er noget meget besynderligt noget. Alt hvad der er sandhed og står i Bibelen, har Jehovas Vidner lige præcis den modsatte opfattelse af.
