Everything about Monoenergism totally explained
Monoenergism is a
Christian heresy related to
Monophysitism.
In the
7th century,
Byzantine Emperor Heraclius attempted to solve the schism between
Chalcedonians and Monophysites, and suggested the compromise of Monoenergism. This compromise adopted the Chalcedonian belief that
Christ had two natures, but tried to address Monophysite misgivings by the view that Christ had one "energy". The definition of the term "energy" was left deliberately vague. Monoenergism was accepted by the Patriarchs of
Constantinople,
Antioch, and
Alexandria, as well as by the
Armenians, though not by the Patriarch of
Jerusalem or
Pope Honorius I. The lack of support from the Pope led Heraclius to abandon the belief in
638. Instead he declared the doctrine of
Monothelitism, though this didn't solve the schism either.
Both Monoenergism as well as Monotheletism were condemned as heresies by the
Sixth Ecumenical Council, held in Constantinople in
680.
