- Resolve the differences between Roman Catholics and Protestants.
- Reform the Roman Catholic Church.
(The council was called to respond to the Protestant Reformation — to try to restore unity where possible and to correct abuses and clarify Catholic doctrine. It was not directed to unite western Europe against the east or to assimilate Turks; attempts at reconciling radical groups like the Anabaptists were not a primary papal aim.)
