Ioannes 54 was bishop of Faustinopolis in Cappadocia Secunda; in 681 he attended the Third Council of Constantinople (the Sixth Ecumenical Council) and was present at two of the last three sessions (sessions sixteen and eighteen, on 9 August and 16 September): Riedinger II 2. 690-827 (= Mansi XI 616-678). In the subscriptions to the statement of the faith, which condemned monotheletism and to the Council, he is styled Ἰωάννης ἐλέει Θεοῦ (Riedinger II 2. 827, line 21 (= Mansi XI 677) reads: ἀνάξιος) ἐπίσκοπος τῆς Φαυστινουπολιτῶν πόλεως (Riedinger II 2. 827, line 21 (= Mansi XI 677) reads: ἐπίσκοπος Φαυστινουπόλεως) τῆς δευτέρας τῶν Καππαδοκῶν ἐπαρχίας: Riedinger II 2. 792, lines 12-13, 827, line 21 (= Mansi XI 649, 677). The old Latin version in Riedinger II 2. 793, line 13, calls his see "ciuitatis Faustinupoleos secundae Cappadociae". In the lists of those attending each session he is styled Ἰωάννου ἐπισκόπου Φαυστινουπόλεως: Riedinger II 2. 690, line 23, 760, line 33 (= Mansi XI 616, 628). Still bishop in 692, he attended the Quinisext Council in Constantinople and signed the canons: Ohme, Bischofsliste, p. 160, no. 139 (= Mansi XI 1000) (Ἰωάννης ἀνάξιος ἐπίσκοπος Φαυστινουπόλεως δευτέρας τῶν Καππαδοκῶν ἐπαρχίας).
