Motive? The merciful man does good to his own soul: but he that is cruel troubles his own flesh Proverbs, The Bible

Forgiveness feels unfair because it goes against our God-given sense of justice Unfair!!!!

God asks us to forgive by appealing to our God-given sense of justice. Forgiveness is fair. Fair

Jesus’ teaching on “the unmerciful servant” Our sins are very great. God has forgiven them all.. By comparison to the offenses we have committed against God, our brethren's offenses against us are small We should abundantly forgive since we are abundantly forgiven.

Who believes what we've heard and seen? Who would have thought God's saving power would look like this? The servant grew up before God—a scrawny seedling, a scrubby plant in a parched field. There was nothing attractive about him, nothing to cause us to take a second look. He was looked down on and passed over, a man who suffered, who knew pain firsthand. One look at him and people turned away. We looked down on him, thought he was scum

But the fact is, it was our pains he carried— our disfigurements, all the things wrong with us. We thought he brought it on himself, that God was punishing him for his own failures. But it was our sins that did that to him, that ripped and tore and crushed him—our sins! He took the punishment, and that made us whole. Through his bruises we get healed. We're all like sheep who've wandered off and gotten lost. We've all done our own thing, gone our own way

And God has piled all our sins, everything we've done wrong, on him, on him. The Prophet Isaiah, The Bible

“Forgive us our sins, as we have forgiven those who sin against us”.
