They did not came for the church. Both catholic and protestant churches overwhelmingly at least shut up if not supported nazi Germany. Some priests were persecuted but mostly because they were either personally politically opposed or, more frequently, they belonged to some undesirable cathegory.
Ironically, Jew were also painted as all that's wrong with capitalism. The majority of German workers were anti capitalist at the time and vilifying the Jews got them on board.
