The Quest

For centuries, the church had claimed to be infallible and it was according to its own people and their army. Papal armies, at the time of the crusade wars, were sent to the Holy Land of Israel to kill off the Jews in order to replace them as God’s chosen people. Even more Christians were killed trying to protect the Jews to reclaim the Holy Land, as well as to stop the expansion of Muslim territories, including Israel. Pope Innocent III wiped out tens of thousands of Christians in search for unity, but they refused to take part in their practices. Christianity could not obtain its freedom from the wicked nature of kings and popes across Europe, so history began to be replaced by the early fathers, by recalling them as saints, such as St. Polycarp. Since his death was by a Roman emperor, they refer to him as a Catholic to say “we were the ones being persecuted by Rome.” They were not Roman Catholic but were canonized as saints of the church. Saints of this world are not the saint
