Pope Felix IV (died September 530) was Pope from 12 July 526 to his death in 530.He came from Samnium the son of one Castorius. Following the death of Pope John I at the hands of the Ostrogoth King Theodoric the Great the papal voters gave in to the king’s demands and chose Cardinal Felix as Pope. Felix’s favor in the eyes of the king caused him to push for greater benefits for the Church.He was elected after a gap of nearly two months after the death of John I.
