Spiritual Christianity (Russian: духовное христианство) is a type of religious thought among the sectarianism of Russian Orthodoxy, with followers called spiritual Christians (Russian: духовные христиане).

Traditionally, the following sects are "spiritual Christians": Molokans, Dukhobors, Khlysts, Skoptsy, and Ikonobortsy (Icon-fighters, "Iconoclasts"). These sects often have radically different notions of "spirituality". Their common denominator is that they sought God in "Soul and Truth", rather than in the Church of official Orthodoxy or ancient rites of Old Believers. Their saying was "The church is not within logs, but within ribs".

Rejecting the official church, they considered their religious organization as a homogeneous community, without division into laymen and clergy.
