Matthew 16:16 - Simon Peter answered and said, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
John 20:31 - but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name. Sounds like saved to me.
Also in John 13:10-11, we read - Jesus said to him, “He who is bathed needs only to wash his feet, but is completely clean; and you are clean, but not all of you.” For He knew who would betray Him; therefore He said, “You are not all clean.”

Half a gospel, is no Gospel at all.... your clamouring on about 'ongoing belief' means nothing because you obviously do not get it.
We are saved BY GRACE
8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works, so that no one can boast.

There is no rest against those who subvert the Gospel... and you would do well to listen and learn that what @Judges1318 teaches is not biblical.

Hebrews 3 speaks of Israel's unbelief in Yah after they were delivered from Egypt.
they grumbled , doubted , and complained all the way to canaan . then they wanted to send spies. then they refused to enter.
so, point 1- Israel never really believed . God said of them " there hearts are always going astray , and they never knew My ways'.
point 2- God did not withdraw His promise to Israel, after all the sin and unbelief , God took them to the promised land. Israel refused to enter.
so, there you go. another proof of your theological fail.

Someone (like you) who does not preach "The Gospel" and you have been told this many times... is the starting point and you deny the Gospel because we are saved by Grace.
God does not reduce His grace or withhold it because of sin, nor does He does not un-save us because of sin because then Grace would NOT be Grace.
“Moreover, the law entered that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more.”
- Romans 5:20
Yeah you go on about the meat of the word and you haven't figured out the milk yet.
