        4. He called a council of Church leaders to meet in Trent, in northern Italy.
        From 1545 to 1563, at the Council of Trent, Catholic bishops and cardinals agreed on several doctrines:
        •The Church’s interpretation of the Bible was final.
        . Any Christian who substituted his or her own interpretation was a heretic.
        •Christians needed faith and good works for salvation. They were not saved by faith alone, as Luther argued.
        •The Bible and Church tradition were equally powerful authorities for guiding Christian life.
        •Indulgences were valid expressions of faith. But the false selling of indulgences was banned.
      2. Pope Paul IV
        He vigorously carried out council´s decrees
        In 1559, he had officials draw up a list of books considered dangerous to the Catholic faith. This list was known as the Index of Forbidden Books.
