I would say that a "Christian" is a person who reads the Bible, praises God, and lives a "good" life by his/her religions standards. A "Hell-fire Christian" is one who is "on fire for God". They believe anything a preacher says, anything the Bible says, and translates the Bibles words in the most literal sense. They see anyone that is less than perfect, even though they are as well, as heathens and try to bring the word of God to them at all costs.

Mr. Rogers was a true Christian. George W.'s followers are Hell-fire Christians.

I've never heard of the second kind of Christian; Christians are Christians, no differences

Christian is a follower of Christ, and a "Hell-fire" Christian is not.

not a lot. except that the "christian" belives in god and all of that. but is not as vocal or showmanship type as the hell-fire one who will do almost anything to get their point across about the dangers of not being a "christian"

A Christian focuses on what Jesus did to bring salvation to the world.
A Hell-fire christian focuses on what people do to go to hell.

One is a fire-breathing dragon with bad breath; the other lines up around the block to watch the Da Vinci Code.
LOL.

Christian is modest and able to share their views in moderation.
Hell-fire Christian, does not care who he steps on, or how loud and insensitve he gets. Has to prove he is right at any cost.

The persecution just shows Christianity all the more correct.
