When preaching on street corners, Robert Roberg  (b. 1943) was abused more often than heard. One day he picked up chalk and drew  references to scripture on the sidewalk. People stopped, looked and listened to  his every chapter and verse. This began his foray into expressing his religious  beliefs with paint, and he expresses his beliefs with fervor. Although a  dutiful messenger of the Lord, as he matured he criticized the hypocrisies of  the Christian church, feeling that “the true Gospel has been usurped by Greek  Philosophy and Roman militant paganism.” Roberg’s paintings challenge the deity  of Christ and the Trinity, and attack a Christian war ethic as unchristian.
