Mark used it as meaning # 1a in 1:
John used it as meaning #1b in 17:24 What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy [G622] us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God.
Judas was G622-destroyed.12 While I was with them, I kept them in your name, which you have given me. I have guarded them, and not one of them has been lost except the son of destruction, that the Scripture might be fulfilled.
Mark used in as meaning #2 in 9:
Luke used it as meaning #3 in 15:41 For truly, I say to you, whoever gives you a cup of water to drink because you belong to Christ will by no means lose his reward.
Both the Greek G622 and the English "lost" are polysemantic.6b He calls his friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.’
