The major philosopher who had the greatest influence on Augustine was Plotinus, who was a neo-Platonic thinker. Augustine's chief problem was to make the doctrines of Christianity internally coherent. His attempt to do that relied more heavily on Plotinus than on anyone else (except the authors of the New Testament such as Paul).
