Ancient Philosophers were confused by the existence of God and Jesus. Were they the same or were Christians worshipping two Gods? They did not understand that Jesus was of the same substance that God was. Jesus was the Son of God, but was also God. Plato believed there was a “supreme principle” called “the One” or “the Good,” but that “supreme principle” was viewed intellectually and transcendently. He was simply saying that God could exist, but was not admitting to the existence of there being one God like the Christian faith
