The Commission consisted of three parts, in the following order (Matthew 28:18-20) (1) Making disciples from ALL nations (2) baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Holy Ghost, and (3) Teaching the to observe ALL things WHATSOEVER I have COMMANDED you." I see nothing in that that commands us not to teach His commandments to everybody. It is up to the party to whom the message is brought to make their decision to hear or not. Jesus died for everbodies sin and that message of eternal life MUST go to all.
