The author tries to describe how and which of these models were assimilated by Christian society during the first centuries and which were rejected. The purpose of this article is to show how important Aristotle’s, the Stoics and Epicurus’ philosophy was for Christians in the advancement of the Christian lifestyle among the Greek societies. Understanding the development of theology in the early Greek Church requires knowledge of the ideals and values that shaped the thinking and behavior of people before they heard about the Gospel of Jesus.enAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/pl/AristotleStoicsEpicurusPlatoancient GreeceChristianitymodels of human lifephilosophyantiquityChurchChristian lifeancient Greek and Christian models of human lifeArystotelesstoicyEpikurPlatonstarożytna Grecjachrześcijaństwomodele życia ludzkiegofilozofiastarożytnośćKościółżycie chrześcijańskieThe Influence of Aristotelianism, Epicureanism, Cynicism, and Stoicism on Human Life in the Early ChurchArticle
