Justin Martyr During the second century of the early church, there was an important Greek apologist known as Justin Martyr. Justin's writings represented the first encounter of Christian revelation with Greek philosophy and a basis for the theology of history. Justin was born around 100 in Samaria. He studied various philosophical schools, adhering first to Stoicism, then to Pythagoreanism, then to Platonism. Justin became a Christian, his position was pagan philosophy, especially Platonism. Justin worshiped the Father as supreme in the Universe, worshiped the logos and/or the Son as divine but secondarily, and worshiped the Holy Spirit thirdly. For Justin, the logos was above all Jesus Christ. He was the “whole Word.” Justin believed in the full divinity of the Son. Justin's philosophical assumptions changed the biblical basis to a large extent. He defined Jesus as a unique Power who is separate from the Father, but is the source of all Being. In the beginning was the Word [Logos], and the Word [Logos] was with God. And the Word [Logos] was God." (John 1:1) In this verse, interpreted by Justin, the term logos means "reason". When it was written Jesus was the Logos of God, it meant that Jesus is the Reason of God, he is the embodiment of the power of God. Justin's insight into the Logos for him is essentially that the Logos is the purpose of creation and revelation , as the agent and servant of the Father. Hagan 2The Father communicates with the logos and the logos is the organ of creation that God conceived and created through him. The early Christians recognized that God is the source of all reason and knowledge of the sheet ... regarding the world, time, creation, freedom, the affinity of the human soul with the divine spirit and the recognition of good and evil”. that of teaching men the truth and saving them from the power of demons. Justin demonstrates through his works that Jesus is both the messiah, affirmed by the Old Testament, and the pre-existing logos, considering him as the incarnation of the Logos, and/or "the second". place” with respect to God. He illustrates the divine of creation and salvation, which is realized in Jesus Christ. The logos is the eternal Word, the eternal reason and the creative reason. The martyr's ideas are important to study and understand because his ideas had an impact on the church because they show the origin of the beliefs and customs of Christianity and the understanding of Jesus Christ, the logos, according to God.
