A category inherently contains restrictions and definitions which differentiate it from something else.

Christians are those who believe in the Trinitarian God YHWH. If they don't, then they aren't Christians, they're something else. The earliest Christians believed this, and Christians today believe this.

Call gnostics, the Ebionites (who I don't believe ever called themselves Christians), the Arians and the Marcionites "pseudo-Christians" or whatever you want. But they aren't and never have been Christians.
