I think the difference here when it comes to the Great Commission is that the directive is to proclaim the beliefs - not to shove them down somebody's throat and tell them they are bound for eternal torment if they don't accept them. So on the one hand, yes the true believer can and should be willing to express his or her beliefs - both in word and in deed. But it is one thing for me to tell you what I believe to be true - it is quite another for me to preface my profession with verbiage that indicates that you must believe as I believe or you are lost. The Great Commission does not authorize or impel me to engage in that type of behavior.
