We found this Church still being used to day for worshiping Christ Jesus like those Knights
On 15 July 1099 Jerusalem fell to the Crusaders after a five week siege and the victors proceeded to take the city. After 460 years of enemy rule, the Crusaders restored Jerusalem to Christian hands, and declared the city the capital of the Kingdom of Jerusalem.
The city’s populations underwent a significant change, has Christian Western culture now took center-stage, and Latin the language of prayer was heard again in Jerusalem.
Under the Crusaders Jerusalem once more assumed a Christian character, they renewed Christian traditions and rebuilt churches.
To the south was the quarter occupied by the Hospitalers (warrior knights who initially undertook to protect and guide pilgrims, and to lodge them in their vast Jerusalem hospice, and eventually became part of the Kingdom’s defenses).
The holy sites on the Temple Mount were declared Christian. The Temple Mount was the seat of the Templars, an order of monastic knights whose names derived from their location.
The great Golden Cross rose above the Temple Mount.
The Knights Templar were founded before 1125 to defend Jerusalem and the Knights Hospitallers (also called the Knights of St John, in 1144 came to aid and protect Christian pilgrims, who were travelling to Jerusalem.
