Abstract (EN)

In the IV. century lots of controversies had occured about the subject of Jesus Christ, his substance, his eternity. Foremost among them a religion movement called Arianism comes. Arianism is a religious movement argues that Jesus is not of the same essence as God. A.D. In 325, it was declared heretic with the Council of Nicaea. In addition to social and economic reasons, the relationship between the church and the state, which continued throughout the Middle Ages, triggered the need for reform. All classes supported the reform movement, except the church that wanted to retain authority. In 1516 the translation of the Bible prepared the ground for religious reform. Therefore, the Bible has become open to interpretation. As a result, many sects emerged. One of the most important of these is Uniterianism. The Uniterianism is a theological movement based on the belief that there are no three Gods in the trilogy of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. According to them, Jesus became the Son of God in His baptism. It denies both the godness of Christ and the personality of the Holy Spirit. To them there is only one God
