1 Samuel15:26
26 And Samuel said unto Saul, I will not return with thee : for thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, and the LORD hath rejected thee from being king over Israel.
This was no lye, though he afterwards returned, because he spoke what he meant, his words and intentions agreed together, though afterwards he saw reason to change his intentions. Compare Gen. 19. 2, 3. Which may relieve many perplexed Consciences, who think themselves obliged to do what they have said they would do, though they see just cause to change their minds.
