Dyoenergism
Dyoenergism (derived from Greek as term for "two energies") is a particular Christological doctrine that teaches the existence of two energies (divine and human) in the person of Jesus Christ. Specifically, dyothelitism correlates the distinctiveness of two energies with the existence of two specific natures (divine and human) in the person of Jesus Christ (dyophysitism). Therefore, dyoenergism teaches that Jesus Christ acts through two energies, divine and human. The Sixt Ecumenical Council in 680-681 reaffirmed dyoenergism as church doctrine and at the same time rejected monoenergism.[1]
