Forgive 'to be' forgiven
or
Forgive 'because' we are forgiven?

both?

Mat 6:15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

Eph 4:32 And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.
 
Forgiveness is HUGE with God. The bible shows if we do not forgive others, our sins wont be forgiven. That is a major pitfall. If you hate a single person and refuse to forgive him or her that alone can forfeit your salvation. I think forgiveness should be talked about much more as it is so important.
