Reformed Christianity Calvinism , is a major branch of Protestantism that began during the sixteenth-century Protestant Reformation , a schism in the Western Church . In the modern day, it is largely represented by the Continental , Presbyterian , and Congregational traditions, as well as parts of the Anglican and Baptist traditions.
A foundational event that divided the Reformed from the Lutheran tradition occurred in 1529 when reformer Huldrych Zwingli of Zürich broke with Martin Luther on the topic of the Lord's Supper . A separate Reformed tradition developed over several generations, especially in Switzerland , Scotland and the Netherlands .
In the seventeenth century, Jacobus Arminius and the Remonstrants were expelled from the Dutch Reformed Church over disputes regarding predestination and salvation , and from that time Arminians are usually considered to be a distinct tradition from the Reformed. This dispute produced the Canons of Dort , the basis for the "doctrines of grace" or "five points" of Calvinism .
Reformed theology emphasizes the authority of the Bible , the sovereignty of God , and covenant theology , a framework for understanding the Bible based on God's covenants with people. Reformed churches have emphasized simplicity in worship. Several forms of ecclesiastical polity are exercised by Reformed churches, including presbyterian , congregational , and some episcopal .

Peter Martyr Vermigli Reformed theologian . His early work as a reformer in Catholic Italy and decision to flee for Protestant northern Europe influenced many other Italians to convert and flee as well. In England, he influenced the Edwardian Reformation, including the Eucharistic service of the 1552 Book of Common Prayer Loci Communes , a compilation of excerpts from his biblical commentaries organized by the topics of systematic theology , became a standard Reformed theological textbook.
Vermigli's best-known theological contribution was defending the Reformed doctrine of the Eucharist against Catholics and Lutherans. Contrary to the Catholic doctrine of transubstantiation, Vermigli did not believe that the bread and wine are changed into Christ's body and blood. He also disagreed with the Lutheran view that Christ's body is ubiquitous and so physically present at the Eucharist. Instead, Vermigli taught that Christ remains in Heaven even though he is offered to those who partake of the Eucharist and received by believers.
