It should be noted that [[Miaphysitism|miaphysitism]] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miaphysitism] has always been is the Christological position of the Non-Chalcedonian, [[Oriental Orthodox ]] Churches (not monophysitism). Non-Chalcedonian, Oriental Orthodox Churches have always strongly also condemned Eutychianism as a heresy. {{stub}} ==Quotes== ==Links==* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EutychianismWikipedia - Eutychianism] * [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miaphysitism Wikipedia -Miaphysitism] as a heresy* [http://orthodoxwiki.org/Monophysitism Monophysitism] by OrthodoxWiki {{returnto}} [[Christianity]] -> [[Jesus]] -> [[Nature of Christ]][[Category:Christology]]
