Someone who tries to be both part of an anti-social subculture (see punk for a good example) and a Christian, not realizing that you can't support the ideals used in punk and be a Jesus follower at the same time.
I'm very punk, but I can't have sex, do drugs, or listen to any rock n' roll music that doesn't praise the Lord because I'm a Jesus freak.

Jesus Freak: not, as many seem to believe, any christian. most christians are okay. but jesus freaks are in a class of their own. every religion has the fanatics, and the reason christianity has one with a name is because the religion is in the government and ruining peoples lives... ahem. anyway, a jesus freak is a christian who a)thinks anyone who isnt christian is a satanist, b)thinks they have to kill these "Satanists", c)is a homophobe (if theyre a homophobe because that's what the LORD says...x.x), d)goes around pushing christianity on everyone and tries to "save" everything thats alive and non-christian, e)puts people down because of what they where or say or listen to if they think its going against the lord or something, and/or f) thinks god will sort the dead out and therefore doesnt care if they or someone else dies.
"Ahh, look at that person flailing about in the water, I think he's drowning... oh well, the Lord will bring him to heaven. If he's not a believer, hey, let him go to Hell!" -random jesus freak

Originally, dating back to the late 1960s and early 1970s, it was a term used to describe counterculture people, or hippies, aka "freaks" who were part of the Jesus movement. However, later on it was used as a pejorative against anyone who was a particularly devout Christian and especially vocal about it, even if they were rather square and quite the opposite of counterculture or hippies. This is typically how the term is used today.

A true Jesus Freak is one whose life has been changed by the unfailing love of Jesus Christ. They spend time in his word and choose to live for him. They do not try to cram Jesus down your throat, but instead they simply try to show you the love of Christ by their actions and behaviors. They trust that God will do the rest.
(Note: True Jesus Freaks do not live this way as an act, they are genuine people.)

A self-professed Christian who labors under the mistaken impression that Christians are persecuted in this country, and that he or she is commonly persecuted for his or her beliefs. These people usually attempt to convert everyone they know or meet to their own denomination of "born again" Christianity, thereby alienating a number of non-Christians as well as Christians of denominations not of their own, then attribute their subsequent shunning by society to a fictitious, widespread anti-Christian mania.
Josh: "Hi, my name is Josh, and I'm a Jesus freak."
Tim "Hi, my name is Tim, and I'm Jewish."
Josh: "You need the love of Jesus in your life! Repent! You're going to hell!"
Tim: *walks away*
Josh: "Why do you hate me? Why must I be persecuted?!"
