Dear readers, Catholic Online was de-platformed by Shopify for our pro-life beliefs. They shut down our Catholic Online, Catholic Online School, Prayer Candles, and Catholic Online Learning Resources essential faith tools serving over 1.4 million students and millions of families worldwide. Our founders, now in their 70's, just gave their entire life savings to protect this mission. But fewer than 2% of readers donate. If everyone gave just $5, the cost of a coffee, we could rebuild stronger and keep Catholic education free for all. Stand with us in faith. Thank you.Help Now >

John IV John IV, (d. 642) a Dalmatian by birth, was the son of Venetius, whom scholars believe to have been a Byzantine official in Ravenna. John was an archdeacon at the time of his election to the papacy (640), and as pope, he condemned Pelagianism and monothelitism. He also condemned the Celtic church's practice in calculating the date of Easter. John defended Honorius I's interpretation of the wills of Christ in a letter to Emperor Constantine III because John believed that the clergy in Rome and in Constantinople had failed to understand Honorius' reasoning properly.
