The group description for the usergroup Christian is simply this:
I'm a believer.

Elijah John, what do you believe that makes you Christian?
First of all, on this site it is enough for someone to identify as a Christian. Those are the rules.
But no matter, I will answer.
I am a Christian because I am devoted to the God of Jesus, Father YHVH.
I am a Christian because I embrace the ethic of Jesus, the Golden Rule and his two great laws of love. (of God and neighbor)
I am a Christian because I pray the prayer that Jesus taught. The Lord's prayer.
And I am a Christian because I believe in the
Father's love and mercy, again as Jesus taught.
That is my answer, but it is not up for debate.
Let me ask you this. Must a person believe everything in the Bible in order to be a Christian in your eyes? Did Jesus tell us to accept the letters of Paul as Sacred Scripture?
And if you don't like my presence here in this forum, take it up with the boss, Otseng.
