Matthew 9:6(excerpt)
6
But I want you to know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins.”
---
Why forgive? Because it shows your soul can show mercy on another soul. The human animal does not forgive, there is always judgement, retaliation, and justification. Our design does not react so that we can deny it. But our hearts and minds can be given understanding that is holy, and our soul can choose to act in faith of the unseen qualities of love. Why forgive, because we can choose to.

Matthew 6:14
14
For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
---
Everytime a human chooses to act on what the eternal conscience supplies them, they are acting on unseen qualities of God. Whether they know it as of God, or they believe it is a quality of themselves; they are supplying others something that as a requirement, must deny themselves to do. So as they forgive, their acts are celebrated in heavenly realms. And they will be shown the same amount of forgiveness in the judgement they will recieve.

Ephesians 4:32
32
Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ; God forgave you.
---
Love is kind. And mercy and compassion are also qualities that stem from roots of Love. For those who believe in the Son of God, their acts of forgiveness are founded in the confidence of Christ's authority, not just an understanding of the unseen qualities of God. So, forgiveness coming from a Christian under grace, is forgiveness that comes from faith. This honors the Father through His Son.
Otherwise, everyone else considers their acts of love and forgiveness as emotional maturity, or at best, spiritual acts of the soul. Either way, God will in the end be shown as what is righteous alone. But, those who are of the body of Truth, will remain a part of the kingdom, the eternal conscience, as co heirs of what is righteous.

Matthew 6:12
12
And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.
---
The cost of trespass is clear. When I trespass against you, my sin is my earthly gain, and your earthly loss. When you sin against me, you have earthly gain from that trespass, and I suffer a earthly loss by it. But these trespasses are not only witnessed. We are tempted to trespass by what is placed in front of us, and when we make our choice it is witnessed by heavenly forms. Eternal judgement, we bring upon ourselves its outcome.
What we are shown to rely upon that is not rooted in love, becomes what binds us. And all will come to recognize the authority of God. To return to the love that created us, we will pay for the cost we created for others. That payment is in the form of chastisement, but on a spiritual level. So, during our brief existence, how important is it that we become aware of love, and the capacity of forgiveness!

John 20:23
23
If you forgive anyone's sins, their sins are forgiven; if you do not forgive them, they are not forgiven."
---
It is a choice to forgive. And the choice should be made in sincerity. You must be aware, that you are taking a earthly cost upon yourself when you forgive. Because a trespass has been made, and a choice has been given. Either you choose to return evil for evil, of you return evil for good. With Love, mercy and compassion fuel forgiveness.
If you choose to be forgiving, you will suffer it. Like Christ suffered.
