Can I lose my salvation?

No

To get to the root of this matter, let's ask some questions.
firstly, what does it mean to be saved as used in this context?

An2elect2:
If you are saved you can't lose your salvation because salvation is by grace through faith and this depends on God.

OK so what happenes when I sin at will?

dear Calvinist, we don't need to argue. Why do you check an aspect? your soteriology is not balanced.

The Whole Scripture is replete with conditional eternal salvation, there is no where in Bible that affirms salvation cannot be lost or those who were once in Faith are forever in Faith minus what happens afterward.
The most deceitful of the camp is 'HyperGrace' with easily believism.
To say Once saved forever saved is to deny the fact there are apostates who reject Knowledge of Christ (Heb. 10:26, Heb 6).
To say a believer who lives after the flesh is saved is to contradict the whole tenor of the Scripture (1 cor. 6:9, Gal. 5:19-21).
Be not highminded but fear, continue in his goodness otherwise you will be cut off (Romans. 11:21-23).
Now concerning Eternal forgiveness, future sins are not automatically forgiven. It is absurd, that will contradict the teachings of Christ on forgiveness. For instance, if you do not forgive, your heavenly Father not forgive you.
If there is eternal forgiveness, why do we pray for the restoration of a brother who sins not unto death (1John 5:16, James 5:19-20)?
If all future sins are not looked at, how did Jesus discover the adultery of his servants in thyatira (Rev. 2:19-23)?
If Christ cannot save us from inherent power of sin, why did He die?

I do not have problem with eternal security of saints but I have with that of sinners.

Sin cannot have dominion over a Christian anymore because he is no longer under the law but under grace. In other words a Christian can no longer continue in sin (make a practice of sin).Even if he sins (which he hates) he cannot be judged for it because Christ has borne the wages of all his sins. You can read Romans chapters 6,7 and 8. Better still the whole of Romans to get a clearer picture.

Willful sin is Sin
