The '''Nature of Jesus Christ''' is widely debated subject amongst different [[Christianity|Christian]] [[Denomination|denominations]]. The most widely held view is [[Dyophysitism]], formalised at the [[Council of Chalcedon]]. This view teaches that [[Jesus Christ|Jesus]] has two natures, one human and one divine. It is the view held by all [[Reformed Christianity|Reformed churches]], the [[Roman Catholic Church|Roman Catholic church]], the [[Eastern Orthodoxy|Eastern Orthodox churches]], the [[Lutheranism|Lutheran churches]] and the [[Anglican Communion]].

A form of Dyophysitism is technically held by the [[Church of the East]], though this is rejected by all other denominations as the non-Chalcedonian [[heresy]] of [[Nestorianism]].

The second most common view is [[Miaphysitism]], which teaches that Jesus has one nature, which is both human and divine. This is the view held by the [[Oriental Orthodox Churches|Oriental Orthodox churches]].

Other views which have since fallen out of common use include [[Monophysitism]], [[Eutychianism]] and [[Apollinarism]].
