The analysis considers how the lingering presence of heretical Christian theologies in the Middle East impacted the effectiveness of Christian apologetics upon an early Islam that was still malleable. As will be shown, despite the successes of the early Ecumenical Councils, heretical Christian sects were alive and well in the Middle East as Islam emerged. Furthermore, this emerging Islam was less theologically solidified than might be believed. Orthodox Catholic theologians such as John of Damascus formulated cogent apologetic tracts with which not only could Christianity be defended but could also aid in the conversion of Muslims. However, the socio-political situation in the Middle East blunted the effectiveness of these efforts. In conducting the present analysis, the results of the three Great Councils (Nicaea, Ephesus and Chalcedon) are reviewed, followed by a discussion of the origins of Islam and the key theological differences between that religion and Christianity. Afterwards, the main Christian sects and their relations with each other and their new Muslim rulers are assessed, setting the stage for the consideration of several key dialogues which occurred between Islam and the different Christian entities in the Middle East. Comparing these dialogues with the theology of John of Damascus' writings concludes this analysis.
