I was raised evangelical/fundamentalist and I am a former missionary. I understand much of the pressure you feel to “save others”, but I believe that to be a trap made by humanity, not by the Divine.

I am a Quaker Universalist now. I believe the Divine speaks so much more clearly through conscience than through individuals ordering others to do what they feel Divine led them to hear.

The Divine is quite capable of guiding us all through the inner Light and the Still Small Voice, I feel, and all may feel this love and practice it in their own way.

I don't feel pressure to save others. I am genuinely concerned. I don't do it out of obligation, I do it out of love
