Your answer is not sufficient .You quote the words of Isaiah prophet. But i quote the words of Jesus.
"these twelve Jesus sent forth,and COMMANDED them ,saying GO NOT in to the way of the GENTILES, and into any city of SAMARITANS enter ye NOT .But go rather to the lost sheep of the HOUSE OF ISRAEL"(Mathew 10:5,6)

Jesus not said to them but commanded them not to enter and reach any Gentiles and samaritan.Who are the Gentiles . We muslims and christians and all other human being except jews.was it an indication of his mission was only for jews?

"And behold , a women of Cannan came out the same coasts , and cried unto him ,saying ,Have mercy on me ,O lord , thou son of David ; my daughter is grieviously vexed with devil .But he answered her not a word And his disciples came and besought him, saying , Send her away ,for she crieth after us.But he answered and said " I AM NOT SENT BUT UNTO THE LOST SHEEP OF THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL.Then came she and worshiped him, saying,Lord,help me.But he answered and said ,it is not meet to take the children`s bread , and to cast to DOG"(Mathew 15:22,23,24,25,26)

After that the woman`s daughter got fine not because of the changed mind of Jesus but she cried and cried "Yt the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters table"(Mathew 15:27)

In which Jesus called all the Gentiles and samaritans ,DOG. was he really merciful to the humanbeing .Was he really a saviour of all world . Was he really a son of god because he had no mercy to those who were not jews. was`nt it very cruel a women was called Dog by the Wonderful councellor ,The mighty god, the everlasting father,The prince of peace.

Can you find some good answers?
