A Christian is defined in the Bible as someone who has been quickened by the Holy Spirit of God, through faith in Jesus Christ as Saviour. The person admits he/she is a sinner who needs a Saviour, that he/she believes that Jesus Christ is the Son of God who came to earth to die as a propitiation for our sins. The person asks Jesus to save them from hell when they die. Once saved and quickened, a Christian cannot lose his/her salvation for "no man can pluck thee out of the Father's hand." Some pertinent passages to read are Ephesians chapter 2, Romans chapters 5 and 10, 1 Corinthians 15, among many others.

I've been a Christian since I was 12, and I have never heard of the term "quickened" to describe a Christian.
