*By briefly mentioning Arianism (timestamp 39:28), Pastor Minato described the heresy as teaching others that the Son was at one point "unborn and later became born or made." Pastor Minato intended to say that Arianism teaches that the Son was "unbegotten and later became begotten or made." Meaning, that Arius and his heresy taught that the Son was created by the Father. Hence the necessary articulation of the Nicene Creed which states, "I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made..." This is important to distinguish because the Son was at one point indeed born into human flesh. Hence the words of the Apostles' Creed, "I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary."
