How do YOU glorify God in your body?
Which of Paul's epistles from Romans to Philemon is to the church of God, and not to the BOC?

They are all to the BOC, but you can read the introductions to see which ones include the church of God.
Because of how nasty some of your Dispie buddies get, I'm not going to give specifics.
For the purpose of this discussion, just assume it's one of the following:
So, now your saying that parts of Romans - Philemon are NOT for the BOC?
How about teaching, sweetie?

With the sacrifice of praise: Hebrews 13:15
With sincere thanksgivings: II Cor. 4:15, 9:11; Phil. 4:6, Col. 2:7, 4:2, I Tim. 4:3-4, Rev. 7:12
By serving righteousness: Romans 6:22; I John 3:10
By bearing fruits of Spirit: Galatians 5:22-25
By bearing one another’s burdens: Galatians 6:2
Daily living by faith not by sight or works: Hebrews 11:6
By following God's commands: I John 2:3-4
By loving fellow believers: I John 2:4:11
Also:
(Heb 13:15-16) 15 Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise—the fruit of lips that openly profess his name. 16 And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.
Dispensationalists don't like these passages.
They are taught that after faith, they don't have to do a thing.
While that is true from a salvation standpoint, it's not what Paul and Peter teach the Royal Priesthood of believers are to do. Paul and Peter both tell us to offer spiritual sacrifices to the Lord.
Those who have faith who do not offer spiritual sacrifices have a dead faith.
(James 2:17) In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.
This is just another example of how the false teachings of John Nelson Darby (Dispensationalism) is a dangerous doctrine.

Amen !!!!!!
Dispies don't want to hear this. They are taught to do nothing after salvation.
For arguments sake, did Paul tell the "kingdom believers" things that don't apply to the BOC in Romans -Philemon?

Hebrews 8:11; I John 2:27
Part of the fulfillment of the new Covenant as prophesied by Jeremiah 31:31-34, and Joel 2:28-32

Most Dispensationalists think grace = license to live lawlessly, and prove to be antinomians. IMO, they are intellectually lazy and spiritually passive.
God wants and blesses evidence of active faith . . not just lip service hypocritically given in His name.
Yep.
As you can see from STP's posts, he thinks spiritual sacrifices are not for him.
He thinks he's the big toe of Jesus, and that the Royal Priesthood and spiritual sacrifices are for the lowly "kingdom believers" that's he's one day going to rule over.
You will now be accused of preaching a "works based" doctrine by the Dispies.

They think it is a sin to do any of these things.
(I forgot to list the sacrifice of charity! Christians can sacrifice through their pocketbooks, too.)
Yes, I know.
When I attended the Dispy church I did for 25 years, the pastor called them "dead works".
He used to say that people did these "dead works" because of guilt, and that guilt was a sin, and therefore doing the "dead works" was a sin.

How can a sincere believer in Jesus Christ, ever conform to His image, and grow in grace, if they do not follow in His footsteps and love the Law and the Brethren?
This is the wonderful teaching of the Apostle John, who dispies seem to marginalize.
