Arian heresy, named after its promulgator Arius, a Lybian who was parish priest near Alexandria
c.310, declared that God the Son, because begotten by the Father, must have an origin in time and therefore is not ‘consubstantial’ with the Father. This breach of the doctrine of the Trinity was condemned at the Council of Nicaea, summoned by Constantine in 325, which produced the Nicene Creed as the official declaration of the Church.
