To the Christian Community: What would happen if I were to openly challenge God?

And, I mean a really open challenge.

I have been toying with the issue for quite a while, and I figured I would test the pool by examining everyones hypothesis and maybe doing this in the future.

If I were to literally challenge God to kill me within some specific timeframe by some cause (let's say heart failure,) what do you think would happen? What would you expect to happen to me on that exact day, on that exact time span, challenging God? What would you think if, by some chance, nothing happened to me? Would making a challenge on this scale be a reasonable balance of "proof" for whatever side was correct?

The reason I ask is because I see a lot of individuals talking about how individuals who died had no right to "test God," like the Pentacostal man who died when handling a poisonous snake.

So, what would happen if I were to test God in that same sense?

    Nothing God isnt really a hands on kind of guy when it comes to people ( He made us and left us to fend for ourselves )

    The Blunt... I think he's a bit of a troll he fits every christians rhetoric. Nothing will happen, because it's all in our heads anyway.

    The typical Christian response is that you are not suppose to test God.

    When you die (Which could happen for ANY reason, whether it be car crash, random murder, heart failure, cancer etc.) you'll be judged. If you challenge God but don't repent of your wicked ways, you will be judged.
