who declared the english monarch supreme head of the church?
parliament
by 1536, king henry viii of england had broken with the holy see, seized the catholic church's assets in england and declared the church of england as the established church with himself as its supreme head. the act of supremacy 1534 confirmed the king's status as having supremacy over the church and required the peers to swear an oath recognising henry's supremacy. henry's daughter, mary i, attempted to restore the english church's allegiance to the pope and repealed the act of supremacy in 1555. elizabeth i ascended to the throne in 1558 and the next year parliament passed the act of supremacy 1558 which restored the original act. to placate critics, the oath of supremacy which peers were required to swear, gave the monarch's title as supreme governor rather than supreme head of the church. this wording avoided the charge that the monarchy was claiming divinity or usurping christ, whom the bible explicitly identifies as head of the church.
