Answer:

C) James I relied on the divine right of kings to push England toward absolute monarchy.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sentences started by James I was clearly in favor of the divine right of kings to rule the people. He said that kings were God´s lieutenants and they were like gods on earth so he was not in favor of Constitutional monarchy or wanted to separate politics off religion.

I hope this answer helps you.
