The Lubavitcher Rebbe is King Moshiach about whom the Torah has promised. This determination is based, among other things, on the Rebbe's own holy talks, for example: 'Moshiach is the successor of the Rebbe Rayatz.' 'King Moshiach operates in the world and we see his actions.' 'The Rebbe is the leader of the generation and the prophet of the generation, and the words about redemption that have descended to the world are words of prophecy that he himself prophesied.' Similarly, there are various expressions by the Rebbe about his father-in-law (whose place the Rebbe filled) that in our generation, the one fit to be Moshiach is "the leader of our generation."

The Rebbe is defined as King Moshiach who will redeem the Jewish people. The recognition of the Rebbe as King Moshiach was published by Chabad rabbis and others in a halachic ruling based on halachic decisions and on the Rebbe's own references to the subject, when he hinted to his chassidim that he is Moshiach and encouraged them to publicize this in various ways.
