>>>How are you qualified to make that comparison, and say that anyone today who holds like Ulah is a kofer
Firstly, as n0mesorah mentioned, this has been accepted in klal yisroel for all generations.
Now, some strong basic sources, I already mentioned them in my original post.
Rambam said that one who doesn’t await Moshiach is a kofer (in mishneh Torah – halacha).
We are obligated to say 3 times a day that we hope for Moshiach all day long, and that we wish to see it with our own eyes – clearly against that view.
Ani maamin – אחכה לו בכל יום שיבוא
Obviously, there are thousands of sources for this from pesukim, chazal, rishonim and achronim. But these sources that I mentioned show that this is accepted as mainstream halacha.
