They declared, as did Athanasius, that the Son had no beginning, but had an "eternal derivation" from the Father, and therefore was coeternal with him, and equal to God in all aspects.
Sama seperti Athanasius, mereka menyatakan bahwa Putra tidak memiliki awal, tetapi memiliki suatu "derivasi kekal" dari Bapa sehingga sama kekalnya dengan Ia, dan setara dengan Allah dalam segala aspek.
