Matthew 25:25
This seals it. The man says he was afraid. This is the spirit that works in the children of iniquity. The spirit of fear. A child of the devil can have no other spirit, for that is all the devil can offer. He was afraid, and fear kept him from blessing. That is really it. Adam knew this reaction well. It is the reaction of a guilty soul before the Holy God. It is not the reaction of one who belongs to the Lord Jesus Christ. Christians need not be motivated by fear.
