What is another word for Homoiousian?
Pronunciation: [hˈɒmɔ͡ɪˌa͡ʊzɪən] (IPA) 
Homoiousian is a term that refers to a theological doctrine that was popularized during the 4th century AD. The term describes the belief that Jesus Christ was "of a similar substance" to God the Father, rather than being "of the same substance" (Homoousian) as the Father, as was the preference of the Nicene Creed. Some synonyms for Homoiousian include Semi-Arian, Heteroousian, and Eusebian. The Semi-Arian belief, while similar to Homoiousian, believed that Jesus Christ was not created but was instead "eternally begotten" of the Father. Heteroousian refers to a belief that Jesus Christ is of a different substance than the Father. The Eusebian doctrine, named after Eusebius of Caesarea, was a form of Homoiousianism that emphasized the unity and similarity of the Father and Son.
