The purpose of this thesis is to assess the historical debate of Nestorius Controversy by researching, analyzing and discussing the Christology of Nestorius. The thesis will mention Nestorius' position and place in the history of Christian doctrine, or dogma, and will serve to help readers to research and to evaluate Nestorius' Christology on their own. The main methodology of this thesis is Comparative Approaches. There are two other auxiliary methods that will support this thesis. One is Ideological Criticism and the other is Theological Interpretation. The research contents includes: the life and background of Nestorius, the personality of Nestorius, the works of the patriarch (especially the recovered apology of Nestorius: the Bazaar of Heraclides), the comparisons between Nestoruis' Christology and Cyril's Christology, the teaching of Nestorius and Cyril, the reasons why the opponents believe Nestorius' teaching is a heresy and the responses from both the school of Antioch and Nestorius himself, and the debatable points of Nestorius' Christology. The main research area is Nestorius' Christology and his teaching. The other areas include: the controversy between Antiochene Christology and Alexandria Christology, the controversy between Nestorius' Christology and Cyril's Christology, and the first four Ecumenical Councils (particularly the Council of Ephesus, 431 and the Council of Chalcedon, 451).
