A Christian ( pronunciation (help·info), (from the Ancient Greek: Χριστιανός Christianos) is a person who adheres to Christianity, an Abrahamic, monotheistic religion based on the life and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth as recorded in the Canonical gospels and the letters of the New Testament. "Christian" derives from the Koine Greek word Christ, a translation of the Biblical Hebrew term Messiah.
Central to the Christian faith is the gospel, the teaching that humans have hope for salvation through the message and work of Jesus, and particularly, his atoning death on the cross. Christians also believe Jesus is the Messiah prophesied in the Hebrew Bible. Most Christians believe in the doctrine of the Trinity ("tri-unity"), a description of God as Father, Son and Holy Spirit. This includes the vast majority of churches in Christianity, although a minority are Non-trinitarians.
The term "Christian" is also used adjectivally to describe anything associated with Christianity, or in a proverbial sense "all that is noble, and good, and Christ-like." It is also used as a label to identify people who associate with the cultural aspects of Christianity, irrespective of personal religious beliefs or practices.

ich bin genauso wie ich heiße: mein Name ist Schwein,
ich bin geil und gemein genauso wie du,
nur dass ich mache was ich sage und ich gebe es zu,
ich fahr’n dicken Mercedes, „Hallo da, wie geht es?“,
eingepackt in Lagerfeld ist die Welt die mir gefällt,
wie aus dem Katalog bestellt, bevor das Datum verfällt,
hab’ ich dich schnell mal abgezockt und um die Kohle geprellt.
Refrain:
Es ist geil ein Arschloch zu sein,
Es ist geil so richtig dreckig und gemein,
wenn du ein Schwein bist, gehört dir alles allein,
Es ist geil ein Arschloch zu sein,
Es ist geil ein Arschloch zu sein,
Es ist geil so richtig dreckig und gemein,
wenn du ein Schwein bist, gehört dir alles allein,
Es ist geil ein Arschloch zu sein.
One more time, check it out!
Meine Freundin hat ein wirklich gutes Elternhaus,
denn für mich sprang bei der Hochzeit ein Adelstitel raus,
und gibt es ein Problem, dann wird es weggekauft,
denn die Party und’ne American Express hab’ ich auch,
und so kam ich nach oben in die schöne Welt,
in der man viel verspricht, aber wenig hält,
und die Moral, egal wen interessiert das schon?
Denn Undank weiß ja jeder ist der Weltenlohn.
Refrain
OK und noch einmal!
Ich bin die zehn auf einer Skala von eins bis acht,
ich mache Dinge die hast du dir noch nicht mal gedacht,
Mann, für jeden deiner Schritte, da gehe ich zwei,
ich zieh’ an deinem kleinen Scheißleben locker vorbei,
ich fühl’ mich gut, wenn andere sagen ich bin arrogant,
denn was ich will und erreiche das geht Hand in Hand,
es gibt nur einen wie mich und es ist schön, dass es mich gibt,
ich bin wie all die anderen auch nur in mich verliebt.
