In the end, all that remains is the magnificence of heaven. Irish Scripture Scholar Frances Hogan explains the final overthrow of satan as described by St. John in Chapter 20 of the Book of Revelation. This is the dramatic end of human history and the dramatic end of the battle between satan and God. 

At the end of the new era, satan will be allowed one more chance to come back to the earth and to test God’s people; this is because satan will not change or repent. The church must remain faithful during this test and prove that she is loyal to God Almighty. As long as the little ones remain in union with Christ, satan remains chained; it is the duty of the church to restrain evil.

St. John wants us to know that the final answer from God to the enemy is fire. When all is done and dusted, we all have to answer for our actions on the earth. God wants every one of us to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth.
