Bucer's influence on Calvin rested on two factors which go hand in hand. First, there was a reciprocal respect which is clearly manifested in their correspondence. This respectful posture toward each other, however, is supported by a second element which relates to the heart of their theology, i.e. the work of the Holy Spirit in causing us to live in communion with Christ. The ‘communio’ that existed between Bucer and Calvin was based on their shared ‘communio cum Christo’.
