What happens to the curse on the earth as a result of paying off Satan's mortgage?
When Satan's mortgage is paid off, the curse is lifted from the planet. The earth is released from its cursed condition, God renovates it, and the whole planet is restored to a Garden of Eden situation, made ready for Christ's Kingdom on earth.
Les explains that the tribulation judgments and cataclysmic events serve the purpose of paying off Satan's mortgage, pictured in Revelation chapter 5 as the scroll with seals. When that mortgage is paid off, the curse is lifted from the planet. The earth is then readied for God's renovation project and made ready for the Kingdom. When Christ returns, He destroys the remaining armies and all those still in rebellion, and the earth is brought back to a condition as it was in Eden—not just in one small area, but the whole planet reverts to a Garden of Eden situation. Then comes the thousand years.
