Quite extensive, Pope Paul III reconvened the Council of Trent and approved the Society of Jesus among many other things. Pope Paul IV also oversaw the Council of Trent, instituted the Roman Inquisition, and strongly affirmed the Catholic dogma of extra ecclesiam nulla salus("Outside the Church there is no salvation"). He also started the Index of Forbidden books which was in force from the mid-16th century up until 1966.
