Rom 9:11-13
11 (For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth;)
12 It was said unto [Rebecca], The elder shall serve the younger.
13 As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.
The Bible makes it clear that some people were before of old – i.e., before they were born – ordained to condemnation.
Jud 1:4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.
Pro 16:4 The Lord hath made all things for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil.

It's just a lie to comfort people who are grieving. Like doggie heaven.

Jer 13:23 Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? then may ye also do good, that are accustomed to do evil.
Those who sin wilfully will be punished more severely than those who sin in ignorance, but the ignorant will still be punished.
Lk 12:47-4847 And that servant, which knew his lord's will, and prepared not himself, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes.
48 But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more.

Mt 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law [Torah], or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

Indeed, even some of the most obscure laws contain valuable instruction for the Christian (2 Tim 3:16). For example. Paul quotes Deuteronomy 25:4 to show that he is worthy of being paid for his work as an Apostle.
1 Cor 9:9-10
9 For it is written in the law of Moses, thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen?
10 Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope.
