For a forest to be green each tree must be green. A forest can be made up of all sorts of different trees with various shades and hues of green. If we could look down on the forest a diseased tree would stand out.
It's the same in the congregation - if we are easily offended, harbour resentment and are not peacemakers we stand out- if not to the congregation then certainly to Jehovah.
We could be like that diseased tree and if not treated (by applying what we learn) we could die spiritually.
