Sažetak
Hellenism is a way of life which opposes Judaism and its cultural and religious particularities. Christianity denies these particularities. However, the Hellenization demonstrates how Christianity has therefore changed. Departure from the pagan cult does not show the coexistence of the Judeo-Christians and ethnic Christians but the particularity of the Christian worship. The book of Revelation is a book of liturgical community which tells us that God is the master of the world and thus brings into question the Roman rule. The political message shows Christians as “aliens” in society, as well as atheists.
