“Tithe or Go to Hell!” — Is This Actually Biblical?

Can a Christian actually go to hell for not paying tithes?
Pastor David E. Taylor has made the striking claim that failing to tithe can have eternal consequences. But is that what the Bible actually teaches?
In this episode, I examine this claim directly against Scripture. We look at what tithing meant under the Old Testament law, Abraham's tithe to Melchizedek, Malachi 3:10, Jesus' comments about tithing, and what the New Testament teaches Christians about giving.
Most importantly, we tackle the bigger theological question: What actually saves a person?
If salvation is by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, where does giving money fit? Is the traditional 10% tithe a commandment for Christians under the New Covenant? Can refusing to tithe be considered sin? And can someone's financial giving determine whether they enter heaven or hell?
This isn't an argument against generosity. Christians are repeatedly called to give generously, care for the poor, support ministry, and use their resources faithfully. The question is whether Scripture supports turning those commands into:
“Tithe—or go to hell.”
That's a very serious claim. And serious theological claims deserve to be tested against the Bible.
Watch the full episode, examine the passages for yourself, and tell me what you think:
Is tithing mandatory for Christians—and can not tithing actually jeopardize someone's salvation?
