آریوس

Also known as Arius of Alexandria

Arius (; ; 250 or 256 – 336) was a Cyrenaic presbyter and ascetic. He has been regarded as the founder of Arianism, which holds that Jesus Christ was not coeternal with God the Father, but was rather created directly by God the Father before anything else, as the true Firstborn. Arian theology and its doctrine regarding the nature of the Godhead showed a belief in radical subordinationism, a view notably disputed by 4th century figures such as Athanasius of Alexandria.

AI overview

Arius was an early Christian religious figure whose teachings about Jesus Christ—specifically that Jesus was created by God the Father rather than being eternal and equal to God—became the basis for a major theological movement called Arianism. His ideas were controversial and prompted significant disputes among Christian leaders in the 4th century, particularly with figures like Athanasius of Alexandria who rejected his understanding of God's nature.
