The book of Romans makes that very clear:
Romans 14:10-12 But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.
And Christ Himself spoke of giving account for every idle word on the day of judgment.
Matthew 12:36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
In this case, "men" refers to everyone, not just the saved. So yes, there will be a day of judgment for everyone. Those who have rejected Christ will see what they have done:
Jude 1:14-15 And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints,
To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him.

Reject the first comment...... the bible is a bunch of writings done by the starving tribe in the middle east about 4000 years ago. Things were added to it, and subtracted from it, as was politically useful... copy changes were made, and mistakes were made.... Did you know that there was a gospel according to Philip? where is that? and a gospel according to judas as well... scribes were want to change things too, and between all that time and all those errors, what we have not is nothing.... remember some languages have no separation of ideas nor punctuation marks..... as in "heisnowhere"
(There were tons of other men, both before and after jesus all having a following, and some even claimed to be the son of god... People still run around claiming to be the son of god If one or two people believe him, they are considered nuts. If many do, it is now a relgion......................)
In languages, some ideas can be separated as he is now here or he is no where.... Egyptian hieroglyphics are like this...
There is no need to be save, hon, you did nothing, and saved from what???? when you die, you die.... your molecules get used in something else, just as you yourself are a collections of molecules that were used by some other critter.... lots of the water in your body passed thru the kidneys of a whale.... Assuming you have something of an education, and are at least a bit brighter than the average, read "The God Delusion" don't plan to rush, because it will be lost on you....

I have no doubt it isn't an ultimate being's word, it's the words of people you would think are crazy if you hadn't of heard about them, and just had a casual conversation. I have little doubt about that, unless you're as crazy as they are.
I give account to rejecting your jesus because your jesus isn't the real jesus that lived. The jesus that lived was a leader of a small cult trying to reform judaism. He would look like a terrorist to you, he most likely spoke Aramaic, he would sound like a terrorist to you, he wasn't white. You don't even know the real jesus.
The jesus that lived was very insignificant in the scheme of things. It just so happened that the Roman Empire, fragmented and divided, could be united by christianity, and whohoo! It worked, it was a political move, short sighted, but it worked.
The Roman Empire conceived the basis of modern Christianity, the accounts of jesus' (gospels) were written in a period of time longer than jesus' whole life. Oral tradition passed down the stories for decades,centuries, do you know how fast a story changes? Within minutes, so how could any logical person trust these stories?
My arguments rely on using real-world arguments, logic, reality; in contrast, yours rely on fantasy and magic.

Man will reject jc as the savior because the entire "bible" is not the word of G-D. The TORAH is the only word of G-D. The prophetic books are merely a discription of the lives of the prophets.
We do not need to place much emphasis on a Messiah coming to save us. For whether man rejects the messiah or not, it is important man does not reject G-D and Torah and traditions of old.

According to the bible, yes, all will give account.
The book of Romans is a good explanation of rejection of God and how God deals with that rejection by giving those humans over to their own thoughts and desires.
In the end, all knees will bow before the Lord and confess with their mouths that he is Lord. There will be no athiests in Hell.

All men will give an account but if you are a christian it's different because Jesus payed for our sins and we accepted Him, so as long as we confess whenever we sin we will go to heaven. Also it says in the Bible that all men are accountable, (sorry i forgot where) and will someday have to stand before God for them to be judged.

The Bible is not infallible. It is God's Word as recorded by MAN and therefore we do not have the entire Truth. However, every person is accountable for his/her own actions.

I recommend a good read of a book titled "Is the New Testament Reliable" by Barnett, or anything by the author Gary Habermas. If you have no doubt that it is, than you should not doubt what Jesus claimed to be true.

Revelation 20:11,12 And I saw a great white throne and the one seated on it. From before him the earth and the heaven fled away, and no place was found for them. And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and scrolls were opened. But another scroll was opened; it is the scroll of life. And the dead..... 'were judged'..... out of those things written in the scrolls, according to their deeds.
Heaven here means earthly govt's, and earth means mankind who are not subject to God.
See 2Peter 3:13; Daniel 2:44
We have angels watching us and writing our deeds in their scrolls.

Yes they will the Bible tells us that every knee shall bow every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord even those who rejected him will one day know they were wrong but it will be to late.The Bible is the Word of God and every thing in it was inspired by God through the men who wrote it.
God Bless
