Been researching Sabbatean history. Sabbatai himself was a "bi-polar" gent what gave the movement lift off was Nathan of Gaza - the St Paul of Sabbateanism.
After Sabbatai's conversion to Islam, subsequent imprisonment and death, the antinomian, occultist Sabbateans, were led by the by Yacob Frank, who maintained that Sabbatai's apostate death was metaphysical confirmation and validation of his teachings. The heretical underground current within Jewish culture, a bizzaro strain that was and is the equivalent of Crowley's Thelema where "do what thou wilt" is the whole law.
It was Frank's contention that Sabbatai's conversion to Islam and death in a Turkish prison was a mystical sacrifice which freed his followers from sin and therefore any obligation to obey God's laws, though they would continue to observe the customs and to maintain the appearance of conformity to the communities (Christian, Jewish or Islamic) in which the Sabbateans lived.
Sabbatean metaphysics is based on the teaching of kabbalah, a system of great beauty and power and one which, used improperly results in possession by demonic powers or "thoughtforms"
Jacob Frank was known as "the lord" to his followers, and taught that they were the elect. That the moral strictures of the Bible did not apply to them, that transgressing the old law, violating dietary and sexual taboos was a sacred duty.
He convinced the Catholic church
that his movement was going to accept baptism, was "Zoharic" and "anti-Talmudist" and he only needed some time to prepare for baptism and permission to retain a few, trivial
customs of Jewish tradition. The Church granted him this temporarily. Frank promised to conduct a public disputation against the recognized Jewish positions and authorities. Two disputations followed, in 1756-7 in Kaminiec-Podolsk and in 1759 in Lwow.

The "Collection of the Words of the Lord" is a
group of manuscripts which represent themselves as having been spoken by Frank.
J Frank
"One time on the Sabbath, having come upon a certain highly learned Jew in the street
in Salonika, I asked him a hard question which he was completely unable to resolve; after
much conversation I resolved it for him myself, with which he was extraordinarily
pleased. I said to him, Now you ask me a question and I will answer it for you. How can
that be in the street, replied the scholar? Well, let us go into the Turkish coffeehouse, I
replied, there we should be able to argue with each other. Good. We went in. I winked at
the servant in the coffeehouse of the Turk to serve us 2 cups of coffee. This one brought
them right away, together with two pipes, according to their custom. How can that be,
shouted the surprised scholar, don't you know that today is the Sabbath and that it is not proper for us to drink or eat at a Turk's? I did not answer him but said to the Turk, Did
you mix pork fat in this coffee that he cannot drink it? Angered by these words, the Turk because God forbids them to use pork fat: threw himself headlong upon the Jew and
sought to stab him with a knife; so I said to the Jew, But your own laws exempt you from
that prohibition when you find that your soul is in mortal danger. You know what, let's
better drink. What's to be done! And so we drank and smoked pipes and, since by their
custom, the coffeehouses were open onto the street, all the passers-by could not get over
their surprise at seeing such a scholar break his laws on the Sabbath. Then finally the
time came to pay. The Jew did not have anything on him to pay with on the Sabbath. I
didn't either. There was nothing to pay with. I took his turban from the Jew and left it as a
pledge, and the Jew had to go back to his own home without the turban, with an
uncovered head. And I did that every Saturday, always on different streets, and always with a different learned Jew."
Frank, as we known, allied himself with Adam Weishaupt - and the Jesuits/masons/secret societies all share similar belief and use the same system to interpret the world. So we have fake Jews, Fake Christians and fake Muslims who consider themselves unbound by common morality or law.
The Sabbateans belief contributed substantial to "reform" Judaism, to the Jesuitical conviction that "the end justifies the means," which it does not, and to the extremist theologies of Islam, such as the beliefs of the Donmeh - ostensible Muslim but in fact, heretics - like Jesuits and elements of reform Judaism.
Occult Science is Science
Quabbalah as a metaphysical theory might be compared to Spiritual relativity - neither good nor evil - but very capable of producing either depending on the intention and understanding of the operator.
