   It describes "God with us" (Immanuel). Is there any   
   person who has ever lived (other than Jesus) to whom   
   that description could apply?   
      
   The Book of Isaiah goes on to describe the person as   
   "Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father,   
   Prince of Peace." No person who has ever lived (other   
   than Jesus) could be referred to as "Mighty God" and   
   "Everlasting Father".

   The coming Messiah, Jesus Christ.
