Best Answer

Pope Urban II promised the Knights of France the remission of all of their sins. They literally would be able to escape Hell. Since these men had in many cases lived lives of violence, this was a huge reward. To receive this great gift, they need only journey to the Holy land and seize Jerusalem from the Muslim's grasp, freeing the eastern Christians from their Islamic overlords.
