Als standhafter Vertreter der Beschlusse des Konzils von Nizaa (325) wurde er im griechischen Osten, dem lateinischen Westen und den orientalischen Nationalkirchen verehrt, dabei aber sehr unterschiedlich rezipiert, wie das umfangreiche und bisher kaum erschlossene Corpus der ihm spater zugeschriebenen Schriften zeigt.
