Yes, the Nicene Creed was formulated during the First Council of Nicaea in 325 AD primarily to establish a unified statement of Christian faith and to address divisions within the early Church, particularly concerning the nature of Christ and His relationship to God the Father. By creating a common doctrinal foundation, the Creed aimed to foster unity among Christian leaders and prevent the spread of heretical beliefs. Thus, it served both to clarify core beliefs and to promote cohesion within the Christian community.
