Whats the relevance of this passage :

1] Luke 9:49 And John answered and said, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name; and we forbad him, because he followeth not with us.
50 And Jesus said unto him, Forbid him not: for he that is not against us is for us.
As far as shedding light on the topic, the passage has no relevance. It is by no means a commentary on salvation, let alone an emphatic point of doctrine. You recall another situation wherein demons were involved, when the seven sons of Sceva--- thinking magic existed in the words--- attempted to use the names of Paul and Jesus to work their own miracles. We know how that worked out.

Clearly, inasmuch as they were lacking salvation, these seven brothers were not for Christ.
