Like in Isaiah 9 : 6,
please show where in new testament Jesus told the people to call him
" I M M A N U E L " ?

WinnerT, you obviously did not read the final statement in my post. Please go back and do so and you will see that "name" in Hebrew ((שמ) Shem) and Greek (ὄνομα (onoma)) mean much more than a proper given name. That is obvious from Isaiah 9:6 where there are four names (1. Wonderful Counsellor; 2. Mighty God; 3. Father of Eternity; 4. Prince of Peace) and from Matthew's quotation of Isaiah 7:14 where he applies Immanuel to Jesus in the sense of what Jesus is: "God with Us" (Matt 1:23). That is what these "names" mean. They are characteristics of what Messiah would be.

Please note your Proof # 10 is the most flimsiest of ALL proofs you have produced so far
ENDQUOTE
Au contraire mon ami, Proof #10 is the strongest of all the proofs--and you know it.
How can a son born as a child be Mighty God, Father of Eternity, and God with us?
Because this is exactly the same thought that Jesus was expressing in John 8:58:
Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was born, I AM"
How can Jesus, who lived almost 2,000 years after Abraham died have existed before Abraham was born?
The only explanation is that Jesus Christ is the Eternal God, the Word that was in the beginning with God and was God, and became Flesh and dwelled among us.
We are now at the tenth proof. Ten is the Biblical number which signifies the perfection of Divine order, It implies that nothing is wanting; that the number and order are perfect; that the whole cycle is complete.
Why not pause here and ruminate. Clearly the entire Bible is permeated with the Doctrine of the Deity of Jesus Christ.
Why not fall on the stone (Jesus Christ) and let your proud heart be broken in pieces, and accept the Eternal God, Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, otherwise, the stone will fall on you and scatter you like dust, and you will spend eternity in the lake of fire:
And he who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces; but on whomever it falls, it will scatter him like dust." Mattt 21:43
