The “non come to the father except through me” and the “depart from me I never knew you” verses seems to contradict this
You can take that as literal you need to believe in him or that he needs to approve of you. The second is more likely when you look at Jesus’s life as a whole when he never shunned or hated anyone for not believing afaik.
The second one he is talking to believers who used his name for “lawlessness” as he says. The whole verse should be read and not taken out of context
The second verse you shared is yelling at many people who use his name in vain currently and I’m sure we can think of a few lol
