“Lubavitch believes their Rebbe is Hashem.”
Some have implied such. I remember reading on Bais Moshiach magazine many years ago that included something like, “Hashem doesn’t need anyone to take care of him.”
I’ve seen elsewhere the Rebbe was referred to as Boreinu.
“not only has the Rebbe never proclaimed anything similar to this but he was openly against Chassidim who did.”
Any proof for that statement?
That’s the first time I heard anything like that.
His followers have been talking about MaMaSh the Moshiach for decades. I would think that if he made a clear proclamation to stop, it would have been obeyed.
