Trinitarian doctrine in Christianity
Subordinationism is a Trinitarian doctrine wherein the Son (and sometimes also the Holy Spirit) is subordinate to the Father, not only in submission and role, but with actual ontological subordination to varying degrees. It posits a hierarchical ranking of the persons of the Social Trinity, implying ontological subordination of the persons of the Son and the Holy Spirit. It was condemned as heretical in the Second Council of Constantinople. Subordinationism is not to be confused with Arianism; Subordinationism, as opposed to Arianism, confesses the eternal and necessary existence of the Son and Holy Spirit alongside the Father, and has been generally viewed as closer to the Nicene-Constantinopolitan view than Arianism.
