names of God: Abba by ric gustafson
Mark 14:36- ' and he said Abba Father'
This term refers to God the Father. The term Abba in Aramaic means ' Father'. In this passage, Jesus is having his most intimate conversation with his Father and is asking if their is any way he can avoid his fate. Jesus was scared and was asking his Father for help. He wanted to do his Father's will and not his own. God wants us to say Abba Father because we are his children and he will listen to us.
