Demokrasi Kristian adalah ideologi politik yang muncul sejak abad ke-sembilan belas di bawah pengaruh ajaran sosial Katolik,[1][2] serta Neo-Calvinisme di Eropah.[nb 1] Para penyokong demokrasi jenis ini berpegang kuat kepada prinsip-prinsip pasaran sosial dan fahaman campur tangan. Ia merupakan gabungan idea demokratik moden dan nilai-nilai agama Kristian tradisional, menggabungkan ajaran sosial bawaan mazhab-mazhab gereja Katolik, Lutheran, Direformasi, dan Pentekost.[5][6] Selepas Perang Dunia II, gerakan-gerakan Protestan dan Katolik masing-masing memainkan peranan membentuk fahaman demokrasi ini.[7]
Pentecostals have also secured parliamentary representation, for example, in Australia, Colombia, Nicaragua, and Peru, and have helped form Christian political parties that have won parliamentary seats. A noteworthy case is Sweden's Christian Democrat Party, not only because it is in a continent where Pentecostals have struggled to make political headway but also because its Pentecostal founder, Lewi Pethrus, who challenged secularization by creating institutions to foster a Christian counterculture, was active at a time when Pentecostals in Sweden or the United States shunned politics.
