Reformed \Re*formed"\ (r?*f?rmd"), a.
1. Corrected; amended; restored to purity or excellence;
said, specifically, of the whole body of Protestant
churches originating in the Reformation. Also, in a more
restricted sense, of those who separated from Luther on
the doctrine of consubstantiation, etc., and carried the
Reformation, as they claimed, to a higher point. The
Protestant churches founded by them in Switzerland,
France, Holland, and part of Germany, were called the
Reformed churches.
