"Who decided that Oneness Pentecostals are Protestants?"

Matthew 7:16.

"Catholics don’t do divorce, they made up annulments instead, church sanctioned divorce."

I certainly hope this is not another attempt to tell Catholics what our teachings "really mean". I know that I have explained this to you before, but I will do it again. A Declaration of Nullity s not a divorce, it is a finding by a competent ecclesiastical tribunal that the conditions for a valid marriage were never satisfied and that there was no marriage.

Peace be with you

Catholic church sanctioned divorce.

The Bible does not allow for annulling a marriage.

Jesus Himself said that divorce was permitted for adultery. There is no Biblical basis for annulling a marriage for many of the grounds that the Catholic church allows.
