This treatise discusses the history and proceedings of the Councils of Ariminum and Seleucia, emphasizing their contentious nature and the heresies they sought to combat, especially Arius's teachings.
Athanasius condemns the divisive and heretical efforts to alter or reject the Nicene Creed, exposing the insincerity and heresy of those who seek to undermine the true doctrine of Christ's nature and the Holy Trinity.
He defends the Nicene faith, clarifies the correct use of theological terms such as "coessential," and calls for unity in confessing the true belief in Christ as begotten, not made, of the same essence as the Father.
