At this council, Arius continued to argue his earlier position, that the Son could not be co-eternal with the father, and even went on to say that the Son was not similar to the Father in substance.
Na ovom saboru, je prisustvovao i Arije, koji je nastavio zastupati svoje ranije stajalište da Sin nije mogao biti vječit zajedno sa Ocem, pa je čak otišao i korak dalje ustvrdivši da Sin u svojoj suštini nije ni sličan Ocu.
