That's not quite right. If you double click the app in Finder, it'll
launch a new instance, but then if you double click it again it'll just
activate the currently running instance.
If you initially run Emacs from the command line like this (assuming you
built a .app and put it into /Applications):
/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs
…then if you double click it from Finder it'll just activate the already
running app.
If, however, you run it again from the command line, you will get
another instance.
Perhaps you are running a different binary from the command line?
