Had he lived god would have been invoked. Seeing as he didn't god was not.
Let me explain how this works (I have Holy Rollers in my family btw, and this "fringe" cult isn't as fringey as some people think..at least not here in Kentucky)
If you have the proper level of true faith™ the serpents will not hurt you. God is with you.
If the serpents hurt you you didn't actually have the required level of true faith™. God is not with you.
The snakes and strychnine are tools for confirmation of the presence of the divine.
(both are equally real, it's not a con game at all btw, as some people might imagine)
A little intro for those of us who think this is batshit crazy..including believers of any other christian cult

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
