Is the man, Jesus Christ, called God in the Bible?
Isa 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
Mt 1:23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

No, the MAN isn't called God, the Word (logos) is called God. Notice also that the passage in Isaiah says the child's
name shall be called (among other things) the mighty God; it doesn't say the child would be called the mighty God (particularly since the child was begotten and, as such, had a beginning - God, by His very nature, is without beginning or end).
Even Jesus distinguished between Himself and GOD when He said "to my God and to your God."
My point, of course, is that we must be careful not to confuse, commingle, intermix, etc. Jesus' divinity and His humanity.
