(October 2013) (Learn how and when to remove this template message) </Td> </Tr> <P> Consubstantial (Latin: consubstantialis) is an adjective used in Latin Christian christology, coined by Tertullian in Against Hermogenes 44, used to translate the Greek term homoousios . "Consubstantial" describes the relationship among the Divine persons of the Christian Trinity and connotes that God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost are "of one substance" in that the Son is "begotten" "before all ages" or "eternally" of the Father's own being, from which the Spirit also eternally "proceeds". In Latin languages it is the term for homoousism . </P> <P> Since the Latin language lacks a present active participle for the verb "to be", Tertullian and other Latin authors rendered the Greek noun "ousia" (being) as "substantia", and the Greek adjective "homoousios" (of the same being) as "consubstantialis". Unlike the Greek words, which are etymologically related to the Greek verb "to be" and connote one's own personal inherent character, "substantia", connotes matter as much as it connotes being . </P>
