1) The Elect cannot lose their salvation because, well, they are part of "the Elect".
2) Some of the Elect can lose their salvation but get it back, and if they do, they will go to Heaven, otherwise, they will burn in Hell forever.
3) Anyone who is not saved can be saved after spending some amount of time in Hell, which would, of course, include the Elect in #2.
What did you believe when you were a christian?
I was raised in an Armenian sect; we were taught that we could sin and lose our salvation. After marrying a Catholic and converting, the idea of mortal (dying and going to Hell) and venial (going to Purgatory, and then, Heaven) sins were made, but hardly anyone within the Catholic Church believes in Purgatory, much less people going to Hell.
