Whose actions helped spark the Protestant Reformation?

There were a whole lot of people and events that sparked the Protestant revolt, tracing back, in large part, to the Great Schism, the Schism of the East, also know as the Avignon Captivity, when the Popes were in Avignon for some years. Two influential voices behind the Protestant revolt were John Wycliffe and Jan Hus. But the insane Augustinian Friar who finally sparked the break with Christ's Church was Martin Luther.


How was the Reformation different from a schism or a heresy?

The Reformation was different from a schism or a heresy in that it was a religious and political movement that aimed to reform the existing Roman Catholic Church, rather than forming a separate church or promoting false doctrines. While it did lead to the formation of new Protestant denominations, the main goal of the Reformation was to address perceived corruptions and abuses within the Catholic Church.


Why did the protestant reformation come to England?

Henry VIII did a great job of preventing the Protestant Reformation from having any great affect on England - until he needed a divorce. When the Catholic Church refused to grant Henry VIII a divorce, he decided to make his own version of Christianity, where he made the rules. Henry VIII started the Anglican / Church of England, where Henry VIII was the head of the church (much like the Pope). Henry VIII gave himself permission to divorce and ordered all his subjects to become Protestant.

What are 3 great examples of a schism?

The only two examples in the Catholic Church are the Great Schism in the fourteenth century when there were two claimants to the papacy, and at one time, three. And earlier in the eleventh century when the Schism of the East occurred and the Eastern Orthodox Church split from the authority of the Pope. Some might include the protestant revolt, but as these people left the Church and did not retain valid Orders or Sacraments (saving baptism in some cases), it is not properly a schism.
