They declared themselves the authorized vicegerents of Heaven, as the successors of St. Peter in the episcopal chair, founding their claim upon the words of Christ to that apostle, On this rock will I build my church, and hence asserting that the Church of Rome is the only true church, though they could not produce a tittle of evidence that Peter had ever set foot in that city.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a detailed historical account of the rise of papal power from the reign of Constantine to the decline of the Spanish Inquisition. The author goes into detail about the origins of the temporal power of the popes, the establishment of the Inquisition, and the persecution of the Jews and Moors in Spain. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Catholic Church or the history of religious persecution. The author provides a wealth of information, and the book is well-written and engaging. The book's main focus is on the rise and fall of papal power, and the author does an excellent job of placing this within the broader historical context of the time. The book also provides a lot of thematic depth, and the author explores the ideas of religious persecution, intolerance, and the role of the Church in society. The book concludes by arguing that the decline of papal power was due to a number of factors, including the rise of Protestantism, the growth of secularism, and the increasing power of nation-states.
