CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY FEBRUARY 4, 2026

LIFE EXPECTANCY IN THE UNITED STATES HAS HIT A RECORD 79 YEARS AS COVID AND DRUG OVERDOSE DEATHS DECLINE.

THAT WILL BE GOOD NEWS TO A LOT OF PEOPLE AND EVEN BETTER NEWS FOR THOSE WHO HAVE EXCEDED WHAT I CALL THEIR SELL-BY DATE.

    NO MATTER HOW LONG WE LIVE ON THIS EARTH, WE STILL MUST CONFRONT THE SAME QUESTION AS THOSE OLD TESTAMENT PEOPLE WHO LIVED FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS: WHAT COMES NEXT?

    IT’S AMAZING THAT THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION ANYONE COULD ASK RECEIVES LESS ATTENTION THAN A CONSUMER REPORT REVIEW OF CARS AND TOASTERS. THE WORLD TREATS THE QUESTION OF WHAT COMES NEXT AS PERSONAL, AS IF GOD IS WHAT YOU MAKE OF HIM, NOT WHAT HE HAS MADE OF US.

    THIS IS THE WORK OF SATAN, WHO LOVES TO BLIND PEOPLE TO THE TRUTH IN ORDER THAT HE MIGHT GRAB MORE SOULS FOR HIMSELF.

    GOD IS REAL. HEAVEN IS REAL AND SO IS HELL. GOD WANTS TO SPARE US FROM HELL BECAUSE HE IS NOT WILLING THAT ANY SHOULD PERISH. THAT’S WHY JESUS CAME, TO SAVE AND RESCUE US FROM AN ETERNITY APART FROM GOD. 79 YEARS IS A LONG TIME. BUT ETERNITY IS LONGER. FOCUSING ON WHERE WE WILL SPEND ETERNITY IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN HOW LONG WE LIVE IN THIS FALLEN WORLD. I’M CAL THOMAS.
