What obligation did Noah have in his time? Lot? Moses? Their duty was to warn people of God’s coming judgement so they could escape the things to come.
Noah had to build an ark. At least to my understanding, the Rapture happens as you live your life normally, as you should if it happens tomorrow or 1000 years from then. I think a very high % of folks who believe in the rapture probably live good Christian lives, especially compared to the broader culture.
Are all babies and the mentally disabled raptured?

Again, it makes no difference. Run the good race and keep your eyes on the eternal prize.
With all due respect and no offense intended to those who are very passionate about this topic - jousting with scripture verses rarely advances the cause of Christ. Just politely pointing that out because the internecine warfare among denominations over topics like this often hurts the church.
The final script for the world is already written, but he who believes in Him shall have everlasting life.
What about Enoch’s “obligation”? It says, “Enoch walked with God and was not, for God took him.”
Noah was Taken through the judgement, he didn’t escape.
Israel was taken through the Red Sea, the chariot wheels are still there today where they crossed.
They went through the desert, and all that didn’t believe died there.
Yehova has promised to protect his elect in a place he prepares in the desert during Satan’s Tribulation of the saints. The Earth will swallow up the flood that Satan sends after the elect.
