Select:
- The Son of God is a divine being.
- The Son of God is an eternal being.
Reason: The Council of Nicaea (325) affirmed in the Nicene Creed that the Son is "begotten, not made" and "of one substance (homoousios) with the Father," rejecting the Arian claim that the Son is a created being. (While Christians later affirm the Son became truly human in the Incarnation, Nicaea’s decisive rulings concerned his divine and eternal status.)
