624 CE

Heraclius, hoping in 624 for a compromise that might be acceptable to the Monophysites of Egypt and Syria, adopts the Monothelitic formula, which accepts the teaching of two natures in Jesus Christ, but declares he had only one will or mode of activity (energeia).

Sergius, patriarch of Constantinople, champions the doctrine and gains the support of the Egyptian and Armenian Monophysites.
