According to a Cathar legend, when Adam was expelled from Paradise, he wanted, according to God's command, cultivate the land. Then Satan remembered him that, since the earth was his own property, Adam had to subscribe a written document with Satan, by which he promised to give under the Satanic rule the entire descendance of Adam. Hence precisely that written document was meant in Colossians 2:13-14:
And you, who were dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, by canceling the record of debt that stood against us with its legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross
It is in virtue of that right of property on the earth - because he is his
Creator - that Satan can tempt Jesus in the Wilderness by the promise of it, and
not for the reason given by "Luke":
The devil led him up to a high place and showed him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world. 6 And he said to him, “I will give you all their authority and splendor; it has been given to me, and I can give it to anyone I want to. 7 If you worship me, it will all be yours.”
8 Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve him only.’ ”
This is a passage from the Cathar poem:
Who gave you the order to do me damage, to damage the earth of which I am the master?
Adam replied, "God commanded me". Then Satan replied and said to Adam:
"The God here is me, the earth therefore belongs to me. You go from here to paradise, that's where your goods are. I will not accept you here and will not give you the earth".

The sequel of the legend is interesting:
The Satanic signature is put on a stone, then the stone was hidden under another stone in the Jordan river.
At the baptism of Jesus by John, Jesus put his foot on this stone, hence the Satanic signature comes out. Jesus takes it in his hand and destroyes it.
