King Henry VIII
The above is a gross over simplification! Henry was Head of the Church because he was in a Country or Commonwealth were some 98/99% of the population were Catholics. Later as heresy and false teaching, entered the system and it spread ,Henry put the belief on a regular basis, but the Monarch, as Chief Magistrate in any country, is head of church as regards the law of the land and his responsibilities at law! The Anglican Church, however, issued a statement limiting the King's headship ,'as far as the ,Law of Christ, allows.' The fact is that the regularising of the position, as mentioned above, has been quite basely misused by the Church's enemies and poor scholarship.
