What belief during the Middle Ages allowed the Catholic Church to maintain its power? Plz help me

The correct answer is A. The king was appointed by God and should therefore follow the wishes of the church as he created laws.

Explanation

The Middle Ages was a historical period that lasted from the 5th century to the 15th century. During this period, Christianity took on a lot of importance in the West. In the Middle Age, the King was considered as God's designated ruler. Likewise, once the king died, their children have inherited his position as king. During this time, the power of the king had no limits, and he was the one who created all the laws, and everyone had to obey him since they considered that they were mandates of God through the king. Therefore, the correct answer is A. The king was appointed by God and should therefore follow the wishes of the church as he created laws.
