“Three things are necessary for the salvation of man: to know what he ought to believe; to know what he ought to desire; and to know what he ought to do.”

There are plenty of people who know what to believe, who know what to desire, and know what to do, yet they reject it. (Mark 10:17-22)

There is only one thing necessary for salvation, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved...” (Acts 16:31)

Doesn't anyone fine it odd...

Hanging out there by it lonesome in Acts 16:31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved... we know that is important but there is more...

Where is the rest of the ordinance?

Like repent, be baptized, and receive the Holy Ghost also the covenant of Keep the Lord's commandments?

The scriptures does warn us in

Acts 17:11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.

Some would go away and thinking all they needed to do was to believe and they are saved, but that is only one that one part.

Also one has to know what is expected in the covenant...
