First, we have no way of proving Samuel actually heard God say this. We only trust an ancient writing that declares this, just like Noah and the Ark.
Now that these ancient writings are under the spotlight of Truth, History, and our own experiences, we find many problems which present the past as possibly being misled or exaggerated.
Like I said, if the genocide was in your backyard and you beheld that absolute murder and slaughter of these helpless people, you may question whether a man heard from God or not.
You still left most of my presented problems on past post's, alone.
It's easy to say things; it's another thing to live them.

Yeah, but back in
those days, people knew how to tell fake prophets from real ones, so they knew whose commands they should obey. Ya see.
