This is key as I read the Text.
We all have to understand and try to deal with omniscience and Him having the capacity and right to handle everyone perfectly and righteously as He wills and sees fit for His purposes. You were probably taught re: the angelic conflict and how God is dealing with many issues on many levels and will be glorified in all respects.
I recall a translational exercise in one of the Thess epistles that made it clear to me that He has the right to use us in a persecution and suffering sense to fill the cup of wrath of those who are hostile to Him. That clear realization brought silence to the room I was in at the time I pointed it out.
There are simply more things going on than we have the capacity to comprehend.

Contextually, the reconciliation Jesus taught about pertained to God's Elect.
The judgement seats are spoken of in Revelation.
Those who died in their natural man ,woman,sinner state shall stand before one throne.
And those redeemed in Christ,another.
If the whole worlds people from Jesus time forward were reconciled to God,there would be no judgement of sinners. Because there would be no sinners remaining so to be judged.
