Exposing the fake Orders of St John
THE TRUE HISTORY
The Order of St John
The Knights emerged in Europe during the 9th century. The first Knights were professional cavalry warriors who offered protection to towns and villages from bandits and sea raiders. Subsequently, they became armoured cavalrymen and proved to be very effective in battles. As time went by the process of becoming a knight became solemn and a Christian behaviour came to be accepted, involving respect for the church and the protection of the weak and the poor. The Knights’ origins are to be linked to a particular moment in European history: the resurgence of the Latin West as a Mediterranean power. The first crusade, called by Pope Urban II in AD 1095 and the consolidation of power to keep the conquests of Christian powers provided as a backdrop for the approval of the Order of St. John as an Order of the Church in AD 1113. The institution developed an internal hierarchy, where rank was associated with different grades of power and functions.
