It was the sin of of rebellion (1 Samuel 15:22-23). This type of sin is not done out of ignorance; neither was is committed in a moment of overcomeing some physical or emotional barrier (or the fesh). This was a purposeful rejection of the will of God. However, we must remember that the Old Testament reflects the Law. Saul, David, Moses etc were all under the law and had to obey to the letter the word of God. If not the penalties were harsh and most often resulted in death of the person breaking the law. "The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ, Romans 6:23''. We are no longer under the law but under grace. John 3:16 for God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten son that who ever believes in him shall have everlasting life. Rev C. L. Hall

Saul made other errors as well, but is for the above two reasons that the verses state that he could not remain king.
