Reply To: Question of an ignorant, closed-minded Lubavitcher

Avira,

I don’t know if you read the entire discussion there.
He explains that the title רואה is used about a novi when he uses his power of nevuah to help individuals.

He also brings from Rambam yesodei hatorah that how does one become a novi? If he delves into Torah and careful in serving Hashem, he merits that ruach hakodesh rests upon him.

Then he says that so too nowadays, there are people who are so perfect in their Torah learning and yiras shamayim, that Hashem gives them the same power of רואה (novi) to guide us in avodas Hashem.

This is exactly what the Rebbe said. Since nevua is a foundation of Torah and the Rambam doesn’t give any time limits for it, rather he says that in any time that a holy man arises and performs miracles he is a novi – this teaches that even nowadays (though much less common since נסתלקה רוח הקודש) the spirit of nevua can rest upon great tzaddikim so they can guide us in spiritual and physical matters.
This is especially proven from the Rambam who writes that as a PREPARATION for Moshiach, nevua will definitely return to Yisroel. אין ספק שחזרת הנבואה לישראל הוא הקדמת המשיח
