Abstract
This article is retrospective in nature. trough an appeal to early Christian thought, the ideas about power, both state and church, are explicated. In this research the influence of Christianity on the socio-political evolution of European civilization is analyzed, attention is focused on the gradual integration of the church as it is oligarchized into the existing political system, the main political ideas of Augustine Aurelius are analyzed. It is emphasized that the ideal of the coexistence of spiritual and secular power in a Christian state is symbiosis, i.e. the separation of objects of power, on the one hand, and subjective dominance in each division.
