If so, how do you prove it?
How do you show people what exactly a real Christian is?

Yes. I am. A Christian is a follower of Christ that why they call christian. So you will know if a person is a christian or just claim to be one. You will see on there work. Christian woman is look like this "1Timothy 2:9 In like manner, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefastness and sobriety; not with braided hair, and gold or pearls or costly raiment; "
and "unveiled?
1Co 11:14 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a dishonor to him?
1Co 11:15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering. "
so a Christian woman is wearing modest apparel and have a long hair. Likewise the Christian men have a short hair. And a Christian also do this "1Thessalonians 5:21 prove all things; hold fast that which is good;
5:22 abstain from every form of evil." So a Christian will not go to a place that has a form of evil .

Christianity is a belief and there are no proofs for belief.
Christianity is a relationship to God and to man. You can see this when Jesus quotes the Holy Scriptures.
The only thing "real" about Christianity is the hope for eternal life. That is the focus. Do not expect to get Christians to agree on anything; you can see this in Paul's epistles.
Answer: I can a Christian who believes the bible is the word of God as spoken through his prophets (messengers). This is my belief and reality.

There's no such thing as a real Xian or a "true christian". It's a logical fallacy.
It's funny also to note how many Xians tell you other people aren't "true" Xians. And then how many mention that guy isn't a true Xian. So, I've come to the conclusion that none of them are. They all break the rules of the bible and sin in ways that would send them to hell, according to their religion. (Working on the Sabbath. Lying. Judging. wearing two different types of cloth a the same time) So it's funny that they focus their attention outward, telling everyone else what terrible sinners they are.

Your life will show exactly who you are in Christ. When you are a true Christian people will feel the presence of God on you. They do not what it is, but it's not of this earth. Your walk in this life should be so contrary to the life of a sinner, that people would come to the conclusion God is in you. Not only that, but a mature Christian is able to walk and do the things Jesus Christ did according to Mark 16:15. Jesus went around healing those who were sick. The Lord himself said this would be one of the signs a believer belongs to Him, according to Mark 16:15.

Actions speak louder than words. The words and actions of a Christian should be honorable. I can't just say I'm a Christian but the way I do things and conduct myself are less than honorable. A Christian needs to live his/her faith. Striving to keep the 10 commandments, praying, giving God thanks and praise are all part of it. Lending a helping hand to others not being self centered or self seeking play a big part in it too. Trusting in God, placing faith in Christ that by His grace we are saved and have been freely offered eternal life through Him is essential for all Christians. Speech, actions, giving of time, talent and treasure are all part of showing ones faith as is Church attendance. A person needs to hear the sermon, hear & read the Bible AND LIVE what the Bible and sermons teach. This is part of showing faith in God.

Christianity is not something to be proved to any one. I am a real Christian, I know becauses despite my sin, God accepts me as his child...why because I have accepted the sacrifice of his Son.
Whether anyone else recognises me as a Christian or not is inconsequential. Everyone who knows me knows I am a Christian because that is a big part of who I am - but I don't talk to them about it unless they are willing. The cool thing is that because I respect their beliefs and wishes my non-Christian friends are happy to hear mine - and sometimes that makes them think

Its not the idea of showing people what exactly a real Christian is, its being a Christian (or whatever your faith or belief might be) and helping people and the community in general. Not shoving it in anyone's face.

Yes I have a real salvation experience but no righteousness of my own. Christian means "like Christ". I only hope others see His likeness in me but time and growth is required to perfect the love of the saints as well as to be purged as silver in the refiner's fire. I still have plenty of dross I'm sure.
I try to prove it to God (not man) by keeping His commandments. He has to help me a lot to strive for the goal of being an acceptable living sacrifice which is my reasonable service. This means willing to suffer wrong for His name's sake even if it means physical death "Phl 1:21 For to me to live [is] Christ, and to die [is] gain.
Phl 1:22 But if I live in the flesh, this [is] the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not." My works are not worth anything. His grace is so I try to combine faith with works.
By sharing the gospel truth with them (Christ, the cross and Him crucified) which will set them free if they latch onto it in faith and by trying to love my neighbor as myself, being the good samaritan when possible and if I have something my neighbor needs I simply supply that need and not expect anything in return.

Everyone has different beliefs as to what a Christian is. Personally I believe I am one. God has sent me here to do special things for him for this I am told by preachers etc. I do believe I am a Christian but how ever it is up to god to decide if I am a true Christian or not.
