Again, you try to wiggle out of what YOU said, which is that in your opinion, if one does not read Scripture one’s faith is suspect and their salvation in doubt.

I said that? Where? Provide the link to that statement or quote please......

You lay out what faith means to you and how one’s faith is evident in their actions and behavior.

You say that if one is not interested in reading Scripture, then you would question their faith and thus their salvation.

It’s the protestant way. On the one hand speaking of the actions of the believer, then claiming that if one does not exhibit these actions and behaviors, then one’s profession of faith is suspect. As you said....that person was never born again regardless of what they claim.

I know, it’s a conundrum for you since a protestant believes once saved, always saved. Therefore, in order to maintain that false belief, they must claim that one was never saved to explain away falling back into or never leaving behind their “old nature”.

The real knee slapper is where you say that living out the Christian life is not a requirement of being saved.

The NT is full of how to live the Christian life and yet, you claim that it is not a requirement. Why do we need to read Scripture then?
