But, Dave, I did not ask you about having "saving faith" (whatever that might mean). You said that the people who had the demons cast out of them were believers, not that they had saving faith.
Among Christians, the term "believer" means a believer in Christ as one's Lord and Savior.

There is nothing more or less to it than that and no reason for quibbling over it.

You can see their activities in scripture. Everything from sickness to false teaching, to paralysis, to fortunetelling. All of those Jesus delivered were Christians. Even the Gadarene demoniac had 6,000 demons. They gain access through occult practices.

“And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.” Acts 19:16 (KJV 1900)

And as a result: “Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all men: and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver.” Acts 19:19 (KJV 1900)

False teaching in churches: “Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;” 1 Timothy 4:1 (KJV 1900)

And drug use: sorcery especially exercised through the mixture of substances to make potions; especially used of poison-making. Logos Fact Book.

“And certain women, which had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom went seven devils,” Luke 8:2 (KJV 1900)
One thing interesting is demonic infestation of Hollywood and Music. Well, I'm not saying all is evil like some fundies. However, it's obvious a lot of popular culture is evil and really should be shunned by Christians.

Aliens of the emoji kind are art work, those in the media are imaginary, and those in conspiracy theories are delusional figments of altogether too busy imaginations.

Is there any reference in the Bible about another world where there is life? Alien is just a theory that there is a living thing in another part of the universe.

No.

Yes. Another living thing that's physical and rather advanced (by which I mean similar to human beings, not worms or bacteria, etc., which would of course still be living).
