Jesus said that we should forgive 70 times 7. He said this at Matt. 18:21,22. Jesus was teaching us to NOT keep count of the injury done to us by another person. Rather, We are to continue forgiving others freely. This would agree with other scriptures in The Bible that "Love" does not keep account of the injury. (1 Corinthians 13:5)

Jesus said to forgive 70 times 7. However, this is a figure of speech, meaning to convey the idea that you keep on forgiving as many times as the sinner is repentant.
