Religion "legitimacy," "credibility," and "integrity." Hmm, where do I start? How about the First Amendment?
Amendment I
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.
If they feel their religious credentials are valid, who are we to argue? There is no "earthly" accreditation organization that has divine authority in the first place, although some may believe so, and that is their right.
People can worship moon rocks if they want, and if a valid accreditor accredits the moon rock religious school, is it "legitimate?" Conversely, if an unaccredited "Christian school" offers degrees, is it legitimate and credible? Perhaps they were divinely inspired!
