Someone who has accepted Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior and has a personal relationship with God. You see, Christianity isn't a religion. It is a personal relationship between man and God and does not require a middleman. Read John 3:3-6 and Ephesians 2:8-9

A true Christian is a person who believes in the Word of God and has accepted Jesus Christ as his/her Lord and Savior. Every human being sins, but a Christian realizes their sins and asks for forgiveness. A Christian learns from mistakes and tries not to make them again because he/she wants to live the best life possible, as it is God's will!

A christian is someone who has repented of their sins and asked God to forgive them. They then strive to follow God completly, although at times may stumble and fall. They are not perfect, nor will they admit to being perfect. Instead, they know that if it were not for God and His Amazing Grace, they would be lost and going to Hell.

Anyone who claims to be a Christian.
There are over 10,000 unique Christian cults in the US alone, so there is obviously no particular rule or requirement for claiming to be a Christian.

A person who believes that there is only one god who keeps a special place just for them and keeps track of who is naughty and nice.
Oh and that he sent his only son down to earth to perform parlor tricks and absorb the sin of man.
It sounds kind of silly when I put it that way but Christians don't seem to think so.

A person that has repented, believes in Christ as the only way to heaven, obeys His teachings and commandments in the Bible, has the Holy Spirit (spirit of truth) and knows who the antichrist is.
(Joh 14:15) If ye love me, keep my commandments.
(Joh 14:16) And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you forever;
(Joh 14:17) Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.
(Joh 14:18) I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.

a Christian is a person that has admitted to God that he or she is a sinner then asks God to forgive him or her for his or her sins and then asks Jesus to be his or her savior.and then the last step is telling someone that you have accepted Jesus Christ as your savior.
