Reply To: Chabad Inspires all Jews to Yearn for Mashiach

@sechel83 You are correct. Non Chabadniks do not hold of Chabad seforim in the same esteem that Chabad does. The concepts you mention, like “yechida haklalis”, may originate from something legitimate, like Tzemach Tzedek or Tanya, but it’s a single opinion out of many many other Chassidish, misnagdish, and Sefardish opinions. Futhermore, non-Chabadskers do not have the same interpretation that Chabad has of these concepts, especially considering the influential Messianics who have “interpreted” the late Lubavitcher Rebbe’s letters to explain these concepts in a way that makes their way of life seem in accordance with the Torah.
