The apostle Paul wrote to Christians who had formerly been living in a variety of sinful conditions, including sexual immorality, idolatry, adultery, homosexuality, thievery, greed, and drunkenness.
Isinulat ni Apostol Pablo sa mga Kristiyano sa Corinto na sila ay dating namuhay sa iba't ibang uri ng kasalanan gaya ng pangangalunya, pagsamba sa diyus diyusan, pakikiapid, pagiging bakla o tomboy, pagnanakaw, kasakiman at paglalasing.
