    The Fifth Petition: Forgive Us Our Debts

    When we pray the fifth petition, we are asking God not to account our sins to us, but to account it to Christ. We are trusting in God’s assurance that our sins are forgiven, and our spiritual debt completely cancelled because of Christ’s atoning work on the cross for us.
