No Wolfgang, this is only a later developement. Arius and his folks
originally meant Jesus was a human but was divined because of a
righteous behaviour like a bodisattva. Christ was but an incarnation
of God in the shape of Jesus. Jesus was however in an unexplicible way
fathered by God through Mary.
