BB, you know better than proof text salvation. It’s like dueling verses. 1 Corinthians 6:9-11, Luke 18:18, Mark 10:17 and on and on.
You could write a treatise on what it means to “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ” and still not have it in a box.
Jesus saves whom He saves according to His justice and mercy. (We pray more for mercy than justice. :)
So what happened to free will? Are you a Calvinist after all?
