JIM GIATAS
Uncompromised/End-Time/New Wine
Jim Giatas is an Orthodox Christian singer/ songwriter who proclaims the good news of life in Christ. In these perilous end-times, Jim is blessed with a clear sense of vision as a serious artist who writes and performs songs with uncompromising lyrics firmly based in the Holy Scriptures and in the Holy Tradition of the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church. In this age of confusion, compromise, secularization, and the dulling of our doctrinal acuity, we emphasize apostolic tradition, continuity, and conservatism over a 2,000 year history.
“We preserve the Doctrine of the Lord uncorrupted, and firmly adhere to the faith He delivered to us, and keep it free from blemish and diminution, as a Royal Treasure, and a monument of great price, neither adding anything, nor taking anything from it.” (Eastern Patriarchs to the English Non-Jurors, 1718)
Jim has found the peace of God through repentance in the ancient, undivided, Holy Orthodox Church after years of agony and personal searching. He is of the conviction, however unpopular, that the purity of the Gospel message must never be sacrificed for a desire to become more acceptable to the world.
Jim has accepted the great commission of the Lord Jesus Christ to forsake all, and fully consecrate himself to leading people to God through Orthodox Christianity as his great and only lifework. The life of Christ richly dwells in him as he ministers in spiritual songs, singing with grace in his heart for the Lord.
The aim and final reason for all music
should be none else than the glory of God.”
J.S.Bach

The Nicene Creed A.D. 381
I believe in one God, the Father, the Almightly, Creator of heaven and earth and of all things visible and invisible.
And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father
before all ages.
Light of Light, true God of true God, begotten not created, of one essence with the Father through whom all things were made.
For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary and became man.
He was crucified for us under Pontius Pilate, and he suffered and was buried.
On the third day he rose according to the Scriptures.
He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory to judge the living and dead. His kingdom will have no end.
And in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the Giver of life, who proceeds from the Father, who together with the Father and the Son is worshiped and glorified, who spoke through the prophets.
In one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church.
I acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.
I expect the resurrection of the dead.
And the life of the ages to come.
Amen.
St. John Chrysostom once said,
Find the door
to your heart and you will find the door to the
Kingdom of Heaven.
St. Theophan the Recluse said,
You seek the Lord? Seek, but only within
yourself. He is not far from anyone. The Lord is
near all those who truly call on Him. Find a place
in your heart and speak there with the Lord.
