But the intelligent mind is already prejudiced by sin. The Holy Ghost imparts faith to the heart as he speaks, addressing the mind, but quenching and bypassing reasonings.

Then by what faculty did Paul expect the Corinthian Church to discern the sin in 1 Corinthian 5?

The Corinthian church had enough Hebrew members to apply the moral law of the Tanach as being still effective in the New Covenant. That does not take algebra or logic, just obedience.
