Galatians 5:
Grace sets us free from the bondage of the law. If you depend on the law to save you, you are not in Christ, and you have fallen from grace.
Berean Literal Bible, 2 Peter 3:
Hebrews is similar, 4:
Disobey grace and fall from it.
One can G1601-fall, G4098-gall, or G5302-fall from grace.
Are they still saved?
Some are, and some are not. See Can we lose our salvation?.
We are in Christ who has set us free.1 For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.
Strong's Greek: 1601. ἐκπίπτω (ekpipto) — 10 Occurrences2 Look: I, Paul, say to you that if you accept circumcision, Christ will be of no advantage to you. 3 I testify again to every man who accepts circumcision that he is obligated to keep the whole law. 4 You are severed from Christ, you who would be justified by the law; you have fallen away from grace.
Grace sets us free from the bondage of the law. If you depend on the law to save you, you are not in Christ, and you have fallen from grace.
Berean Literal Bible, 2 Peter 3:
Grace frees us from the law, but it does not mean lawlessness. Jesus binds us to the law of love. We can fall from grace in two possible ways. The Christian binds himself to the OT law, or he becomes lawless. He needs to get back on track to the grace of love.17 Therefore beloved, knowing this beforehand, you beware, lest you should fall from [G1601] the own steadfastness, having been led away by the error of the lawless. 18 But grow in grace and in knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.
Hebrews is similar, 4:
Strong's Greek: 4098. πίπτω, (piptó) — 91 Occurrences11 Let us therefore strive to enter that rest, so that no one may fall by the same sort of disobedience.
Disobey grace and fall from it.
Berean Standard Bible, Hebrews 12:16 Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
Strong's Greek: 5302. ὑστερέω (hustereó) — 16 Occurrences15 See to it that no one falls short of the grace of God, and that no root of bitterness springs up to cause trouble and defile many.
One can G1601-fall, G4098-gall, or G5302-fall from grace.
