@Chochom,
“Sorry, it isn�t in Rambam i got confused. The Gemara discusses many times Talmidim that believed that their Rebbe is Moshiach. therefore we emulate them.”
So you went from it being a Halacha in Rambam, to it being a Gemara which tells us that an amora believed his Rebbe will be Moshiach. That Gemara does exist, and there were Chassidim of different Chassidusen in the past that believed that their Rebbe would be Moshiach. So what? Does that mean that everyone has to believe the Rebbe is Moshiach?
Your are making a Chilul Hashem berabim, being mevaze the Rebbe, and being meracheik Yidden from Chassidus. This doesn’t bring Moshiach any closer.
