Christians believe forgiveness is important based on the teachings of Jesus Christ. The Bible recounts how Jesus forgave those crucifying him and told parables emphasizing the importance of forgiveness, such as the Parable of the Unforgiving Servant. In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus teaches his followers to love their enemies and pray for those who persecute them, showing concern for others. Christians are called to forgive others as God forgives them, so that their own sins may be forgiven.
