What was happening in Corinth is very much like what is happening in our country today. Many Corinthian believers were conceding to a "let's live it up" philosophy, instead of making themselves available to spread the Word of Truth. Rather than giving themselves to the Spirit of God to be used in ways that would plant seeds of righteousness, love and truth in areas where people were hurting and suffering, they were giving way to the idea, "Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die!" In addition they were keeping company with others who thought and lived the same way. Paul reminded them. "Bad company ruins good morals." He then exhorted them. "Come back to your senses...and stop sinning..."
