It is surely true that the presence of such blasphemy would affect the environment in which the Corinthians lived, but that is a different matter altogether than holding the Corinthian church guilty for such evil.
The stark differenced hered is that Owen would say tgose outside the church were guilty. They fell victim to thed culture. Is it possible that much of American Christianity has fallen victim to the culture around it? Owen seems to think this is not possible, while I think it is likely.
