Felix Manalo, Filipino religious leader, founded Iglesia ni Cristo (d. 1963)
Felix Ysagun Manalo (born Félix Manalo y Ysagun; May 10, 1886 – April 12, 1963), also known as Ka Felix, was the founder and the first Executive Minister of Iglesia ni Cristo. Followers see Manalo as a prophet and the last messenger of God. He is the father of Eraño G. Manalo, who succeeded him as Executive Minister of the INC, and the grandfather of Eduardo V. Manalo, the current Executive Minister of Iglesia ni Cristo.
Felix Manalo is the founder of Iglesia ni Cristo, a non-Trinitarian church that originated in the Philippines since 1913. The official doctrine of Iglesia ni Cristo professes that Félix Manalo y Ysagun is the last messenger of God, sent to reestablish the first church founded by Jesus Christ, which the INC claims to have fallen into apostasy following the death of the Apostles.
