THE MITRE (HAT) OF THE POPE AND
WHAT IT MEANS
The Meaning of Vicarius Filii Dei
"The letters inscribed in the Pope's miter are these 'VICARIUS FILII DEI'. which is the Latin for 'VICAR
OF THE SON OF GOD.' Catholics hold that the church, which is a visible society, must have a visible
head...., as head of the church, was given the title, 'VICAR OF CHRIST'." Our Sunday Visitor, (Catholic
Weekly) "Bureau of information," Huntington, Ind., April 18, 1915.

INTERESTING NOTE!
LATIN is the language of ROME. Latin is also Rome's number system. So, all one needs to do is spell
the title of the Popes in Latin, and then simply.... ADD THEM UP!
