Reformed ecclesiastical fellowship worldwide implies the vocation for unity in ecumenicity and is confessed as an integral part of faith. The realization/embodiment of this vocation, however, has resulted in various, even diverging, points of view. The study of the concretization of unity in a plural and fractional ecumenical fellowship was undertaken by examining Scripture and confession, and focuses inter alia on he following aspects: the concepts of ecumenicity and ecclessiastical unity; the relation between kingdom and church; unity as an attribute of the church, and the diversity in the unity. The practice of the pursuit and realization/embodiment of reformed ecumenicity has been tested according to founded guidelines that Scripture and confession have revealed.
