Detailed explanation-1: -Although he was King of both countries, James’s attempt to create a full governmental union proved premature. An able theologian, James ordered a new translation of the Bible which became known as the Authorised King James’s Version of the Bible.
Detailed explanation-2: -However, James was to quarrel with Parliament over a number of issues and this positive early relationship soon faltered. The major issues that caused James and Parliament to fall out were royal finances, royal favourites and the belief by James that he could never be wrong.
Detailed explanation-3: -James’ policy aimed at punishing a few instead of creating bloodshed; Jesuits and seminary priests should simply be asked to leave the country. James proved lenient towards Catholic laymen who took the Oath of Allegiance, and tolerated crypto-Catholicism even at court.
Detailed explanation-4: -One of King James’s first acts in power was to cement the Church of England as the official religion of England. He also translated the bible into English. That translation is known as the King James Bible, and it is still widely used today. King James’s policies isolated religious communities.
