Will a person come out of the fold of Islam by committing sin?

Q:

  1. I just want to be clear about this, if you do haraam things like receive interest from a bank, drink alcohol etc but consider them haraam, so if you consider haraam things to be haraam but still you do them, would you come out of the fold of Islam?
  2. A Hadith said with people little amount of Imaan will come out from hell but as far as I know Quran doesn't says people will come out from hell. Qur'an says those who enter hell will remain in it forever. So will those people be in hell forever and is above hadith correct?
