Jesus was unconcerned about tithing. He warned (parable of the talents) that we robbed G-d and ourselves by not using the gifts given us. To Him, the old woman who gave her last pennies was more worthy than the rich man who gave a huge sum that he could easily spare. Purgatory is well-accepted as a place where the not-so pure reside before Judgment Day, and is not connected with tithing, which is an Old Testament conceit.
