Is it possible that we can be inhabited by that same glory of the Lord, the glory that Ezekiel and other Old Testament prophets saw, the glory that caused them to fall on their faces? If God's spirit dwells in us, then it just possible that the world could see God through us, that we would have the power to convict people of their sins, not because of our words or even our deeds, but because the Spirit of God dwells within. I know I'm not anywhere close to being so transparent that God's holiness shines through, but I think if we call ourselves God's people, that should be our goal and nothing else: that others could not be around us without being aware of the glory of God's presence.
