Reformed

adherents of continental European descent of the Calvinist churches that were formed as a result of the Reformation in the 16th century. The Scotch-English adherents of the Calvinist churches were called Presbyterians and Congregationalists. Initially, the adherents of Zwinglianism (followers of U. Zwingli), which rapidly dissolved into Calvinism, were also numbered among the Reformed.

Reformed churches exist in Switzerland, the Netherlands, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, France, the USA, and other countries. In the USSR, there are Reformed congregations in Transcarpathia. There is no universally recognized creed among the Reformed. The Reformed, like the Presbyterians (the differences in doctrine and worship between the two are insignificant), are the most typical representatives of present-day Calvinism.
