AnswerThe classical Greek philosophers, including Plato, developed the notion of the Logos, or 'Word', which eventually entered Christianity from Philo of Alexandria. We see the concept in its finest Christian usage in John's Gospel, which opens with a discussion of the Word.

Plato, whom some regard as a pagan Gnostic as well as philosopher, said, "I have heard from the wise that we are now dead and the body is our tomb." This is very similar to later Christian Gnostic beliefs and is even echoed in the epistles of Paul.

What are the basic beliefs or the philosophy of Christianity?

The main beliefs that all Christians share are: There is only one God. There is a Trinity of God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. The Bible is the holy book. Jesus Christ (Jesus of Nazareth) was born of a virgin. Jesus Christ was the Son of God. Jesus Christ led a sinless life. Jesus Christ died on the Cross to make all people, who accept his sacrifice, go to Heaven. The main philosophy is that humans by themselves cannot lead a perfect relationship with God. So, God sent a part of himself (Jesus) to make us perfect in the eyes of God.
