Catechism of the Catholic Church

False. Para. 466: The Nestorian heresy regarded Christ as a human person joined to the divine person of God’s Son. Opposing this heresy, St. Cyril of Alexandria and the third ecumenical council at Ephesus in 431 confessed "that the Word, uniting to himself in his person the flesh animated by a rational soul, became man" (Council of Ephesus [431]: DS 250). Christ’s humanity has no other subject than the divine person of the Son of God, who assumed it and made it his own, from his conception. . . .

Para. 468: After the Council of Chalcedon, some made of Christ’s human nature a kind of personal subject. Against them, the fifth ecumenical council at Constantinople in 553 confessed that "there is but one hypostasis [or person], which is our Lord Jesus Christ, one of the Trinity" (Council of Constantinople II [553]: DS 424).
