Arian Christianity is a theological belief that emerged in the early centuries of Christianity, primarily associated with the teachings of Arius, a Christian priest from Alexandria. Arianism posits that Jesus Christ is not co-eternal with God the Father and was created by Him, thus denying the full divinity of Christ. This view led to significant theological debates and conflicts within the early Church. The controversy surrounding Arianism culminated in the Council of Nicaea in 325 AD, where church leaders condemned Arian beliefs and affirmed the doctrine of the Trinity. Despite this, Arianism continued to influence various groups and regions, particularly among some Germanic tribes, for several centuries.
