Hellenistic Christianity

Hellenistic Christianity refers to the blending of Greek culture and religious beliefs with Christian teachings and practices during the Hellenistic period. This fusion resulted in a unique form of Christianity that incorporated elements of Greek philosophy, art, and language into its theology and worship. The spread of Hellenistic Christianity was influenced by the conquests of Alexander the Great, which brought Greek culture to the regions where Christianity was taking root. This cultural exchange led to the development of new interpretations of Christian scripture and the formation of distinct theological doctrines.
