This treatise emphasizes that Dionysius of Alexandria was firmly opposed to Arian heresy and rightly affirmed the divine nature and eternal existence of Christ, despite unwarranted accusations to the contrary.
Athanasius defends Dionysius' use of language about Christ’s humanity and divinity, explaining that such expressions are contextual and meant to affirm the true nature of Christ, aligning with the apostolic teaching.
The text also underscores how Dionysius' writings, when properly understood, demonstrate his adherence to orthodox Christian doctrine, contrasting sharply with the heretical views of Arius and Sabellius.
