How did Martin Luther's doctrine of faith alone differ from John Calvin's doctrine of predestination?
This is like comparing apples and oranges. Both Calvin and Luther vigorously proclaimed salvation by faith in Christ alone. The doctrine of predestination says that God has chosen the ones who have faith from the beginning of time, and emphasizes that faith and salvation comes from God alone. But again, salvation is by fiath alone, regardless of where it comes from.
What was the catholic doctrine on justification by faith defined by the council of Trent and how did it differ from the views of Luther and Calvin?
The Council of Trent affirmed that faith and good works are both necessary for salvation. This differed from the views of Luther and Calvin, who believed in justification by faith alone, without the need for good works. Luther and Calvin emphasized faith as the sole means of salvation, rejecting the idea that good works played a role in justification.
Who can declare doctrine?
Anybody can declare a new Doctrine; but the question really is, will anybody adhere to it? The authority to declare doctrine varies depending on the Christian denomination, and I presume that it varies through time. Anybody can declare doctrine, but whether that doctrine survives depends on how many adhere to it. And I suspect the number of adherents depends on how useful the doctrine is to various individuals. In a free country, there is no official declarer of religious doctrine. In the Roman Catholic faith, the pope declares doctrine. In the Orthodox Christian faith, only a Church Council or Synod declares doctrine. In Protestant groups, anyone can declare their own doctrine.
