After you die.
He's probably saying that because he took offense to your calling him an idiot.

Have you ever been in a church? I have been going since I was a child and I have never heard anyone in the pulpit say 'the wrath of God is going to strike you down' I would love to find out what sort of church you are refering to.
However in answer to your question it means that if you are an evil person and do evil things then God will get his revenge by making you ill.

Romans 2
1 Therefore you have no excuse, O man, whoever you are, when you judge another; for in passing judgment upon him you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, are doing the very same things. 2 We know that the judgment of God rightly falls upon those who do such things. 3 Do you suppose, O man, that when you judge those who do such things and yet do them yourself, you will escape the judgment of God? 4 Or do you presume upon the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience? Do you not know that God's kindness is meant to lead you to repentance? 5 But by your hard and impenitent heart you are storing up wrath for yourself on the day of wrath when God's righteous judgment will be revealed. 6 For he will render to every man according to his works: 7 to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, he will give eternal life; 8 but for those who are factious and do not obey the truth, but obey wickedness, there will be wrath and fury. 9 There will be tribulation and distress for every human being who does evil, the Jew first and also the Greek, 10 but glory and honor and peace for every one who does good, the Jew first and also the Greek. 11 For God shows no partiality. 12 All who have sinned without the law will also perish without the law, and all who have sinned under the law will be judged by the law.

Never.
There's a funny scene in an episode of "Bulls.hit!" where Penn & Teller are running around with helmets that have lightning rods attached to them, and pointing at them yelling, "Right here, God! Right here!"
And of course, nothing happens. We know the Bible says that God "is a jealous God." If the Bible was right about him existing, he wouldn't let his creations taunt him like that.

Yet another scare/control tactic.
A real God would not be wrathful.

For me it happens when I have dairy products without taking a lactase supplement.
It is also pretty brutal on those around me too.
