"Are You a Christian or Believer: What's the Difference?"

“Believer” refers to a saved individual and the evidence of salvation is a changed heart – a new outlook, better attitude and even a new nature. Additionally, salvation is paid for by Christ, is secured immediately upon believing and apart from belief requires no effort from the person being saved. We can neither deserve nor earn the right to salvation.

“Christian” however, is different to salvation. “Christian” (aka Christian living) focuses on a person’s life – how they act. The difference is, while salvation saves a soul, Christian living saves a life and it does that by molding the character of the newly saved person from what they used to be to what they should be. Instead of lying they speak the truth. Instead of lazing they work.
