Solution

The correct option is C Henry VIII
Henry VIII declared that he would be the final authority for the English Church he formed after breaking away from the Roman Catholic Church. The newly established English churches gave more prominence to the Bible over the Pope and developed their own doctrines, principles, and rituals based on the teachings of the Bible.
