Those first four - they all end up in the same place. Now there's a big difference in rejecting Christ and agreeing with Him, but they all end up in the same place, "I never knew you" because agreement isn't commitment. Because I agreed with my wife on things, was that what made us married? No, because you agree with all of Jesus' teachings, you believe all of it, does that make you really His? No. Not until the day you make your own personal visit up that hill - that hill where the cross is where God's Son is paying for your sin.
