There is also Matthew 22:14, For many are called, but few are chosen. There is a significance to the Second Coming, and prior to it, what is described in Matthew 10:34 has to come to pass.

The devil’s work has to be allowed to finish too, such as described in Revelation 12:9; if he did not get to deceive the whole world, then a great purpose God has set in motion cannot be fulfilled.

Furthermore, even rejection of Jesus as Messiah will be forgiven; there is only one sin that cannot be forgiven, and that is blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, which is described particularly in the case of those that were indeed converted but then vehemently turned away.

That's not true. Who taught you that nonsense?

How do you think Lucifer ended up in Hell? Do you think he’ll be forgiven?
