I was interested in the meaning of the term 'begotten' as opposed to 'made' in the Nicene Creed. The dictionary defines 'begotten' a form of 'beget' as : # To father; sire. # To cause to exist or occur; produce. or to bring into being. From the second definition, I now understand that Jesus was created by God, the same way He created the universe.
