One who follows the teachings of Christ.
A doer of the word.
l.Love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, mind, and strength.
2.Love one another.
Upon these two great commandments lie the law of the gospel.

A true christian is someone who follows the teachings of Jesus Christ, they are always kind to their neighbors, and are taught to love anyone no matter what they are weather it be their race, gender, religion, or sexual preference, they are to spread the word of him through their love of humanity. A false christian is someone who uses the bible for their own benfifit and doesn't follow the teachings, they will form "religous" cults and go after anyone who isn't with them a good example of this is a church in Topeaka Ks, where a precher and his church will go to funnerals and protest against the family and the mourners of those who passed on during the war, this is when you know its no longer christian... ..
Hope I have helped some!

a true christian has a very strong quality of love. A true christian studies the bible and attends christian meetings. A true christian puts their trust in Jehovah and prays to him regularly. A true christian follows all of the principals found in the bible because they want to please Jehovah and prove Satan a liar. A true christian believes Jesus was created by God and that he came to Earth as a ransom sacrafice so that we could all have the chance to live forever as God intended. I love this question. A true christian wants accurate knowledge and believes only things that are written in God's Word the bible. True christians are wary of false prophets and apostates... true christians.. okay i should stop but i could go on. I hope this helps

True Christians believe Jesus is the lamb of God, he came to earth and rose from the dead, he gave people grace and a way to heaven by taking punishment for everyone's sins when he took a beating and lifted on the cross. True Christians are baptized and ask God forgiveness for their sins.

I don't think it's anyone's right, Christian or not, to judge who's real and who's fake. Only God can judge who's a real Christian in the end. (a lot of people tend to have some harsh opinions though ^__^)

A true Christian is someone who honestly believes in Christ and tries to live as Christ did. Anyone one can claim to believe in Christ but it's the living like him that's the hard part.

Someone who follows and obey the Lord Jesus commandments and his teaching applied to their life.
James 1: 26. If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.
27. Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.

One that follows the teachings of Jesus. You won't find many in churches. Most call themselves Buddhists, Wiccans, New Agers or such because "Christians" have rarely followed the teachings of the Christ.

a true christian should be christ like but of course none of us are perfect. I would say to be born again and put Christ and the church first
