A long time ago in a post called motivations I talked about a gay bar I was going to paint, I didn't say anything but 2 weeks after I finished they closed down the gay bar. A few weeks ago I had a post that I was painting a satanic metal bar after I had finished painting it they started tearing the whole building down. I honestly don't know what this is about but something strange is happening.

Have you been in either of these bars before?
yes. But just to talk with the owners as it relates to painting the walls. Why do you ask?
Just wondering, because the implications you are making about what they stand for are pretty heavy.
I went into the wick and one of the people who worked there called it a satanic metal bar. I asked about the wall He said: some guy came by earlier wanting to put some Jesus crap on the wall, this is a satanic betal bar, a lot of satanc metal bands come through here and they don't want to see a big jesus thing on the wall.
There were horror movies playing at 11:00am pentagrams and some other stuff. And the gay bar was a gay bar rainbow flags and shirtless bartenders loud and proud. I'm sure that there were probably a lot of bands who played there who weren't Satan worshipers. What implications in particular?
Were you concerned that Battle was stereotyping these places or judging them somehow? I find that amusing. If anything, I would say that Battle is an ideal example of how to relate to people on their terms without judging them...
You have an anointed ministry. Your artwork is also anointed because you are doing it for Jesus. God has anointed you and your artwork with His power for His purposes. You, like Jesus, have shown yourself to be a friend of "sinners" and God is working through that. Keep on doing what you're doing... strange and beautiful things will happen.
Blessings brother
