The true Christian is the one that have trusted and believe in what the Lord Jesus Christ did on the cross for them. He died for their sins, He was buried and took their sins away and He rose again so they can stand just before God. After they have trusted in what He done for them a true Christian will study God's Word so they can do their job that God has given them. He has given ever Christian the minister of reconciliation and He has given ever Christian a high office to represent their heavenly home here on the earth as ambassador. 2 Corinthians 5:18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; 2 Corinthians 5: 20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.

Those who come to the Lord Jesus Christ under the blood and are baptized in His name by water and the Word. With all this, it remains that God alone determines who is or who isn't a Christian.
Baptism, church membership or even subscribing to the moral teachings of Jesus does not make one a Christian before God. Many so-called Christians go into baptism as dry sinners and come up from the water wet sinners. These can be found from high churches to the back streets.
True Christians are those who have the living spirit of the Lord Jesus Christ (Holy Ghost). They walk in love, according to His will and word, separated from the kingdoms of this world.

Christians are people who have willingly given their life to the service of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour. Foremost, we believe that Jesus Christ is the only Son of God, who became man, lived a sinless life, and died a sin-bearing death for all of us. He was raised on the third day following His death, and has been given dominion over everything by the Father. Christians believe the Bible is the inerrant Word of God, and that we are all sinners, fallen short of the glory of God. We cannot work or make for ourselves a way to be justified before God, nor be saved from the lake of fire an pits of darkness forever. Yet, God loves us, and sent His Son as a sacrifice for our sins. Only through our choice to place our faith in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Saviour are we justified before the Father, and become adopted children of God, who are saved and will inherit the kingdom of God. The key to it all is faith (trust and obedience) in Jesus Christ in every aspect of our lives.

They follow Christianity and believe in only one God. They follow the teachings in the bible and make Sunday a day of rest - holy day. They celebrate Christmas as a religious event not just for presents!

A true Christian is someone who meets the critireia of Romans. :)
If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:10

CHRISTIAN, n.
One who believes that the New Testament is a divinely inspired book admirably suited to the spiritual needs of his neighbor. One who follows the teachings of Christ in so far as they are not inconsistent with a life of sin.

The book of Romans says: All who call upon the name of Jesus, shall be saved. The (saved, redeemed, blood bought, ect) are the true Christians. There is no other way to the Father (God) except through Jesus.

Christian = follower of Christ = disciple = you've repented, was baptized by full immersion into water, you're living life according to Jesus' teaching daily
