As far as I am concerned “Christian” means “following the teachings of Jesus Christ”.

That leaves a lot of latitude about believing he was the Son of God, accepting him as a personal savior, believing he was born of a virgin, resurrected from the dead, or any of the other ancilliary dogma that has been built up around him.

I’m not a theologian but they added a book and and that’s usually the division point. Christians added the New Test and no longer considered Jewish. Muslims added the Quran, no longer Christian. Book of Mormon could easily be seen as the same situation. It’s not a big deal to me either way.
