All the nations of the earth regard an oath as a most sacred thing, and one who swears falsely is the vilest of men a perjurer. God is infinite truth and hates lies. What a frightful thing then to call Him to sanction a lie! *348 Q. When may we take an oath?
"Who is able to say that?" exclaimed Thugut, laughing; "many a one has become a murderer, who was unwilling to tread on a worm, and many a one has become a perjurer, who protested solemnly that he would never utter a lie.
