The Term Kafir

Sahih International translations:
Many of the People of the Scripture wish they could turn you back to disbelief after you have believed, out of envy from themselves after the truth has become clear to them. So pardon and overlook until Allah delivers His command. Indeed, Allah is over all things competent. [2:109]

Indeed, those who reverted back after guidance had become clear to them - Satan enticed them and prolonged hope for them. [47:25]

Conclusion:
A "kafir" is a person who have full knowledge about the message of the Quran but rejects it and actively oppose people from it as well.
