Q: What do we pray for in the fifth petition?
A: In the fifth petition (which is, “And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors”), we pray that God, for Christ’s sake, would freely pardon all our sins; which we are the rather encouraged to ask, because by his grace we are enabled from the heart to forgive others.
