<p>The Corinthians had responded to the gospel of God's grace and were saved from their immoral and idolatrous sinful life. However, Paul had received reports indicating their behavior had reverted to their past ways. Paul reminds them, <em>"And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God." </em>(<a href="https://ref.ly/1%20Cor%206.11;nkjv?t=biblia" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">1 Corinthians 6:11</a>).</p>
