Jesus Christ, Son of God, King of Kings, Prince of Peace, model for all. Christianity marked the intrusion of Platonism and Neo-Platonism into Judaism. It places mind – intellect – at the centre of the universe. But what is interesting is that it preaches a very different intellect to the rational mind we know today. The Christian intellect is accessible through the loving heart, not through the reasoning mind. For the early Christians, at least, heart and mind were not separate entities but internal and external attributes of the one reality.
