Why did Jesus use Abba to signify G-d if not because he wished to upset at the very root the horrendous besmirching of the deoity that occurs whenever the deity is made party to a human conflict, particularly one that results in the worst evil of all which is the conscious taking of human life. Jesus, if you follow him, centers the very notion of Satan in the binary mentality which cannot see beyond a conflict. The uncompromising attitudes that hobble our current politics are part and parcel of what Jesus came to defeat. And he succeeded! By giving us the gift of mind that frees us from the binary and enables us to think beyond that box. This very renegade deity Abba is placed within us as a gift. Accessable with a simple inner turn.
