Laura Perry fell for the transgender lie and Jesus drew her out of it

As a child, Laura had an opposite personality to her mother and did not get along with her as well as her brother, whom her mother favored. Laura concluded “that boys were loved more” and that “[she] wasn’t loved as a girl.”

At age eight, a nine year old boy molested her. Afterward, she became “sexualized” and began looking at pornography. During her high school years, she led a promiscuous lifestyle. When boys treated her poorly, she became angry at God and said to Him she “would never serve Him again.”

She continued behaving promiscuously and consuming pornography in college, though she found no satisfaction. Concluding that the lack of satisfaction was because she “was supposed to be the man in the relationship,” she started transitioning, first with hormones, next with a new male name, and finally with a mastectomy. Before the mastectomy, she wondered “What if I really am in the hands of Satan?” She prayed to God not to let her die.

Survive she did. Pleased with the mastectomy, she “quickly forgot God.” Simultaneously, she felt crushed she was “still the same person, just without breasts.”

Laura was not close to her parents. However, her mom sought her help to build a bible study website. Though disinterested in the subject, Laura agreed to help. Her mom’s notes revealed a side of God Laura had never seen before. Having formerly seen the Bible “as God’s rule book,” Laura now “began to see a loving and faithful God, not the angry, judgmental God that [she] had always seen before.”

Laura sought her mom’s help to understand the material. When she had rarely contacted her mother before, she now eagerly spoke to her daily. At some point, Laura experienced a crisis, and her mom advised her to have faith in God. Perceiving that her mother had changed from how she remembered her, Laura realized “the gospel was true… Christ was alive… and that there was a transforming power…”

A bad image of womanhood and the damage from guys left Laura hesitant to embrace womanhood. She sought God in prayer for a month. Then, she had a vision of Jesus reaching down to her in a pit, asking her if she trusted Him. Laura accepted His hand. Afterward, she left her partner, her trans identity, and her job – all for Christ.

Laura received an unexpected outpouring of love from her mother’s Bible study partners and even money to buy new clothes. It turned out that they had been praying for her for a long time. After experiencing all this love from other women and being “loved as a woman,” Laura recounted at the time of her testimony, “[T]hat transgender lie just broke, and I knew I was not meant to be a man.”

Nichol Collins wanted to embrace womanhood after 20 years of being transgender, and God granted her wish

Nichol was only five years of age when someone in her family began molesting her. This person ensured her silence by employing “torture tactics.”

About three years later, the molestation stopped. Around that time, her mother accepted Christ, and mother and daughter attended church. Church was a nurturing environment for Nichol, and she even got baptized at some point.

However, in her teen years, she got into some sort of conflict with some church members. The details were not shared, but the result is that she “didn’t want anything to do with church after that situation.”

After graduating high school, she ran into a transgender lesbian, who took her to a swanky club in Hollywood. She turned her back on her college education to embrace a masculine lesbian identity, drinking, drug taking, and eventually selling drugs.

Throughout this, Yvette, her mom, did not give up on her. When she saw her in person, she would rub her with blessed oil and “command Satan to loose his hold on [her] child.”

Nichol had numerous close calls, but didn’t take notice until she was hit on the head with a hammer during a drug money scuffle. Somehow, she survived the attack unharmed.

A day later, Nichol was back at church, seeking forgiveness from God and prayer from the staff. Nichol has since confirmed “she is completely delivered.” However, this did not happen immediately. She had to put in effort, including going to church, undergoing “months of prayer and fasting,” and getting counseling. This effort paid off, and she started “to hunger and thirst after His righteousness.” At some point, she prayed, “Lord, please don’t allow me to look like where I came from.”

Moreover, Yvette attested, “God has changed her, her heart, her appearance, her mindset, she’s preaching the gospel.”

The Holy Spirit made Gideneo Harmse dispense of his transgender trappings

Gideneo grew up in a stressful environment. In his home, he witnessed domestic violence, and outside it, a crime-ridden neighborhood.

He idolized his grandmother and sought to emulate her. However, his family moved to a different town, away from his grandmother. To cope with his reality, he decided “to not only mimic [his grandmother] but to become her.” He adapted a feminine persona that he called “the queen.”

The LGBTQ community became a refuge for him. At home, he had to deal with feelings of helplessness to defend his mother, but at clubs, he was idolized by others. Through the crowd he associated with, he got into drinking at an early age and, later, promiscuity.

Gideneo found sex addictive because of the power and control he had over others. He derived pleasure from “being able to blackmail people” and “destroy lives if [he] wanted to.” He found himself attacking “anything that resembled the love of God,” because he “didn’t experience the love of God.” Usually, how he did this was by seducing married men, including pastors.

However, he never felt satisfied, and eventually he “became desperate for God.” Though reluctant to go to church due to fear of rejection, a Christian neighbor convinced him to try new churches with her. Eventually, they they found one that clicked, Encounter Church, where God’s presence was palpable and the people didn’t judge by appearance.

As he received teaching and revelation, Gideneo learned he could surrender his brokenness to God to fix. One day, while he was attending an online e-group for his church, he experienced the presence of God strongly and wonderfully. At one point, he asked God, “How I am going to undo the queen?”

God provided an answer, not immediately, nor in words. After Sunday service, Gideneo was talking and having lunch at home with his friend. His feet became swollen in his high heels, and he had to remove them. Then, his face starting burning. It got so bothersome that he ultimately had to go remove his makeup.

His friend cried, revealing that she had been praying for this to happen. At the next church service, the congregation was shocked and touched when Gideneo arrived unpainted and wearing a borrowed “boy outfit.” Now ex-transgender, Gideneo is very grateful for the fellowship he received through his church, which helped him so much through his journey of consecration to God.
