There is only one possible individual that could determine who was a true Christian or not. And as it happens that person disappeared around 2000 years ago (if he ever existed) and has not been doing personal appearances since then. Thus we have no authoritative source to define who is or is not a true Christian.
The upshot of this is of course that the only basis we have to go on is whether someone refers to their self as a Christian or not. Lacking an authority to determine who gets Christianity right or not a person's word is the best we can deal with.
