No belief isn't the same as knowing. Splitting hairs in some peoples eyes but I make the distinction. Belief often entails second hand information, like in a holy book or a religious leader. If you trust the book or say a person, you can say you are 100% certain you believe there is a god but Gnostic means you know and to know you have to experience it for yourself.
