No one goes to hell because they don't go to church. No one goes to hell because they are not religious. People go to hell because they refuse to take the gift of life that is offered to them through Jesus Christ.... Jim

Giving the money to church is no longer required. Why? Because tithing was required when ONLY Priests could intercede between God and Man. This meant that the Priests could not work or they would be considered "unclean" and unworthy of performing priestly duties. So, that is why Tithing was important.
When Christ died, ANY MAN OR WOMAN could then pray to God and get forgiven on their own, without a priest! This means that even if you worked, you could still pray to God, through Christ and get forgiven! No tithing needed. MOST IF NOT ALL of the apostles and early church leaders ALL WORKED! So, why don't the ministers and others these days?

religion is a hoax. but god is only as real as a person make him out to be. religion was from the beginning created by man. it was made to control people spiritually. its more easier to control somebody through religion than beating them up to make them do as you say.religion has killed thousand of people. And today its still killing people. i dont believe you will go to hell because all that tithing and rituals is for man to prosper not God to prosper. God doesnt need your money, its the poor,widows,fartherless,old, and cripple who needs it.People have put there faith in church buildings, preachers,popes,our president, and etc. instead of God and helping out your neighbor. True religion is showing love to all.

I dont know anything for fact, but I think all those little things your speaking of make the difference in the differenct religions the bigger picture is the main point though, I just believe that for me chuch is an every day experience in my head with a connection to a higher spirit God and others like Jesus Mary and any ancestors I have. My point I guess is just that as long as you have an honast effort to atleast know that there is someone to answer to so to speak and try to just be a good person at heart and good to others and not be selfish in this world or judgmental of others you'll pretty much be ok. those little things like giving $ to your church that must be catholic in my opinion are man made requirments to help the aid of ther "government" well its run like one anyways those I dont believe are Gods rules there mans rules starts listening to yourself and only believe in what you at heart feel is truth not what anyone says is unless you to believe it.

The reason anyone goes to hell is they reject Jesus. He is the only perfect one to stand before God, the rest of us our imperfect. If you think you can go to Heaven on good deeds, just ask yourself ,"am I perfect", meaning never in your whole life did you commit a sin. Jesus died so that we may live. It has nothing to do with how much money you give the Church. People give money to their Church to help support its expenses, pay the pastor and the rest goes to help others.

The Right to Enter Paradise
Death is inevitable. The thief on the cross knew when his would occur, but we can not predict our own. After his death, the crucified criminal went to live in paradise with Jesus. Some of us will also live eternally in God's presence. But others will experience everlasting torment, forever separated from Him.
If we receive Jesus as our Savior, our penalty for sin is paid. We are adopted into God's family, and Heaven is our eternal home. If we reject Jesus, we remain alienated from the Lord and under condemnation for our sin. We are destined to experience eternal judgment. God won't accept any of man's excuses because there is no acceptable defense for unbelief. (Acts 4:12)
Become part of God's family today. Acknowledge your sinfulness, and express your faith in these words:
"God, I have sinned against You. (Romans 3:23) I've followed my own way and refused to give You the right to rule in my life. (Romans 3:10-12) I recognize I am separated from You and cannot rescue myself. I do believe that Jesus Christ is Your Son. I accept the truth of the Scriptures? that His death on the cross paid my sin-debt in full. (1 Corinthians 15:3-4) And I ask You to forgive me of my sins. (1 John 1:9) By faith, I receive You, Lord Jesus, as my personal Savior from this moment on."
If you just spoke those words to God, then, like the thief on the cross, you have received salvation? a gift of God's grace. The heavenly Father welcomes every person who comes to Him through His Son, regardless of background, age, or current situation. Through Jesus, the right to enter paradise is yours!

Believe in your heart and profess with mouth that Jesus is the son of God. Dont worry about rituals. Tithing is Biblical, but if you dont do it you wont go to hell

that's a lie. You will not go to hell if you don't give money or not perform rituals. All you need to do is believe that Jesus died for your sins, and accept him as your savior.
