The English Church went through a period of upheaval as one could imagine, first of all it took a clear stand on a major question within the Catholic Church. One that had clear discussion all over Europe for some 1000 yrs. The question of papal authority. Initially it was claimed that authority had lain with the College of Bishops and the early Fathers in Council! This being so the qustion was asked, where did the authority of the Bishop of Rome stem from? Taking advantage from Henry's squalid marital arguments, the Church in England along with the King told the pope [virtually,] that no bishop had authority in another bishop's see, according to the undoubted canons of Nice!
The church staunchly refrained from adding to the Deposit of faith, keeping the line of the Pauline Injunctions written to Timothy and in Convocation placed it self squarely in the centre of the Catholic Camp.
This was done by Henry and the Church together in limiting the actions of the Pope. Then Convocation in 1536/7 and 42 said squarely that the Church held to the Seven Ecumenical Councils. The parliament in 1559 then placed the Seven Councils as a standard for judging the beliefs of the Church and all was reaffirmed in the 1570 Convocation in Eliza's Day.
What happened was that in a state of turmoil and crisis the English Church placed itself firmly and surely on the side of the Catholic Church of the First Thousand Years, before the break between East and West! It went further and placed itself on the side of orthodoxy and rejected the additions of New Rome,[Trent,} and the protestants.

Why did Henry VIII make the protestant church?
Henry would have had little time for Protestants. He was aware of a reformist movement in the English Catholic Church trying to introduce theoligical elements based on the new protestant doctrine. When Henry VIII came to the throne, he was a devout Catholic and defended the Church against them. Henry VIII did not agree with their views. In 1521, Pope Leo X honoured Henry VIII with the title "Defender of Faith', because of his support for the Roman Church. When the Pope refused to grant Henry VIII an annulment from Catherine of Aragon, Henry split the English Church from the Roman church. Rather than the pope, the king would be the spiritual head of the English church. Reformest elements in the English Church at that time gave him support.King Henry VIII declared himself supreme head of a new Church of England. (The Act of Supremacy). This marked the start of centuries or religious conflict in Britain. It is a common misconception, particularly amongst Americans, that Henry VIII became a "Protestant" and turned England overnight into a Protestant country.
