I see English isnt your native tongue. Either that or logic isnt your native thought process.
Michael said the closer one is to God the harder it would be to get offended. Namely because closeness to God produces less inclination to take offenses or reproaches personally.
It doesnt mean getting offended is impossible or a sin itself. And who in the world would say of a rapist "he offended me"? More like "he devastated me and violated me" not "he upset me".
Your extreme red herring betrays another agenda.
