Third Council of Constantinople
The Third Council of Constantinople was an ecumenical council held from 680 to 681 AD. It aimed to address the Monothelite controversy, which debated whether Christ had one or two wills. The council ultimately affirmed that Christ had two distinct wills, one divine and one human, aligning with the teachings of the earlier councils.
The council was convened by Emperor Constantine IV and included bishops from various regions. It condemned the Monothelite doctrine and reaffirmed the decisions of the previous councils, particularly the Council of Chalcedon. This council played a significant role in shaping the theological landscape of the early Christian church.
