Historical Significance:
Arianism became a major controversy in the early Christian Church. It was condemned as heresy at the First Council of Nicaea in 325, which established the Nicene Creed, which affirms the full divinity of Jesus. Despite the condemnation, Arianism continued to have followers in some parts of the Church for centuries.
Modern Influence:
Although Arianism is no longer a major force in Christianity, it has influenced some modern religious groups, such as Jehovah's Witnesses, who believe that Jesus is not God but a created being.
