  Marcellus of Ancyra
The bishops at Jerusalem having condemned his works, Marcellus was first deposed at Constantinople in 336 at a council under the presidency of Eusebius of Nicomedia, the Arian, and Basil of Ancyra appointed to his see.
Marcellus sought redress at Rome from Julius I, who in the autumn of 340 declared Marcellus innocent of the charges brought against him, and reinstated him in his see.
Marcellus' return was resisted by the populace of Ancyra, but he succeeded in occupying his see for a few years, only to be finally deposed by the Marcedonian faction at Constantinople and succeeded by Basil, c.

He developed the theory that the Trinity was the result of emanations from God that would ultimately revert to God in the final judgment.
Marcellus practically denied all distinction between Father and Son, thus teaching a virtual Sabellianism (see Sabellius) that proved embarrassing to his orthodox defenders.

 BOOK 5
Like Athanasius, Paul of Constantinople, Asclepas of Gaza, Marcellus of Ancyra, and others were now reinstated in their bishoprics, the latter, however, not without strife and difficulty, for Basil of Ancyra, the Eusebian occupant of his See, would not of his own will retire.
As is known, Marcellus of Ancyra had, in order to deprive the Arians of their arguments against the Nicene faith, allowed himself to be drawn into heterodox statements.
Zahn, in his work on Marcellus of Ancyra, is of the same opinion as to the chief points; he only places it a little earlier, in 347, because, according to Hilary’s representation, it followed immediately upon the reception into the Church of Valens and Ursacius.

MARCELLUS, Bishop of Ancyra in Galatia, appeared as a zealous adherent of the homoousian doctrine at the synods of Nicaea (325), where he met
It does not seem, however, that he ever returned to Ancyra; and when, under Constantius, the Arians came into ascendency, he was condemned, together with Athanasius, by the synods of Aries (353) and Milan (355).

Of Marcellus Bishop of Ancyra, and Asterius the Sophist.
Now Asterius was in constant association with the bishops, and especially with those of their number who did not discountenance the Arian doctrine: he also attended their Synods, in the hope of insinuating himself into the bishopric of some city: but he failed to obtain ordination, in consequence of having sacrificed during the persecution.
Marcellus being informed of this, and wishing to counteract his influence, in his over-anxiety to confute him, fell into the diametrically opposite error; for he dared to say, as the Samosatene

In their letter to the emperor, they dwelt largely upon this latter circumstance, and brought it forward 282as a charge, alleging that it was a personal insult to him to refuse attendance at the consecration of the temple which he had constructed at Jerusalem.
The motive by which Marcellus was induced to write this work was that Asterius, who was a sophist and a native of Cappadocia, had written a treatise in defense of the Arian doctrines, and had read it in various cities, and to the bishops, and likewise at several Synods where he had attended.
Marcellus undertook to refute his arguments, and while thus engaged, he, either deliberately or unintentionally, fell into the opinions of Paul of Samosata.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Semiarians and Semiarianism
The greater number of the Eastern bishops, who agreed to the deposition of St. Athanasius at Tyre in 335 and received the Arians to communion at Jerusalem on their repentance, were not Arians, yet they were far from being all orthodox.
When Marcellus of Ancyra was deposed in 336, he was succeeded by Basil.
Marcellus was reinstated by the Council of Sardica and the pope in 343, but Basil was restored in 350 by Constantius, over whom he gained considerable influence.

In a letter couched in haughty terms, however, the Aria bishops of the party of Eusebius refused to attend the synod summoned by Julius.
The synod was held in the autumn of 340 or 341, under the presidency of the pope, in the titular church of the presbyter Vitus.
After a detailed examination of the documents, Athanasius and Marcellus of Ancyra, who had made a satisfactory profession of faith, were exonerated and re-established in their episcopal rights.

It was during this visit to Constantinople that another synod was held, at which Eusebius was present, and the result of which was the condemnation and deposition of the bishop Marcellus of Ancyra (see Socrates, I. 36; Sozomen, II.
Marcellus had written a book against Asterius, a prominent Arian, in which, in his zeal for the Nicene orthodoxy, he had laid himself open to the charge of Sabellianism.
The controversy with Marcellus seems to have been the last in which Eusebius was engaged, and it was opposition to the dreaded heresy of Sabellius which moved him here as in all the other cases.

 Trinity - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nontrinitarians assert that Catholics must have recognized the pagan roots of the trinity, because the allegation of borrowing was raised by some disputants during the time that the Nicene doctrine was being formalized and adopted by the bishops.
Marcellus was rejected by the Catholic Church for teaching a form of Sabellianism.
The early apologists, including Justin Martyr, Tertullian and Irenaeus, frequently discussed the parallels and contrasts between Christianity and the pagan and syncretic religions, and answered charges of borrowing from paganism in their apologetical writings.

But, according to the author of this volume, Marcellus was not primarily concerned with speculation on the Trinity; rather his concern was with monotheism, and with the full humanity of Christ.
"[Marcellus] stands in history as a shadowy figure of dubious reputation, who was often used as a symbol of error and heresy.
Lienhard has performed a major service for both Marcellus and scholars of Christian history and theology by presenting this study of the man, his life and works, his thought, and especially his opponents.

 Was the early church 'Oneness' Pentecostal?
Marcellus has been accused of denying the Trinity: "The followers of Marcellus and Photinus...say that there is God, and the Logos, and the Spirit.
Nevertheless, Basil condemns Marcellus as a heretic: "He [Marcellus] grants indeed that the Only begotten was called 'Word,' on coming forth at need and in season, but states that He returned again to Him whence He had come forth, and had no existence before His coming forth, nor hypostasis after His return.
While Marcellus had at least one foot in the orthodox camp, his disciple Photinus was an undoubted fellow-traveller to Pope Callistus I, whose innovations are detailed above.

The council condemned Arianism, but the Greek term homoousios [consubstantial, of the same substance] used by the council to define the Son's relationship to the Father was not universally popular: it had been used before by the heretic Sabellius.
Some, like Marcellus of Ancyra, in attacking Arianism, lapsed into Sabellianism (see under Sabellius).
Eusebius of Nicomedia used this fear of Sabellianism to persuade Constantine to return Arius to his duties in Alexandria.

Marcellus of Ancyra differed in no appreciable degree from Athanasius as to his faith in the revealed and intuitively-discerned fundamentals of Christianity.
When it came to defending them against the Arians, however, Marcellus took distinctively Sabellian grounds.
He wrote many volumes, chiefly against the Arians, and was answered, among others, by Eusebius of Cesarea.
