Time Changer
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Time Changer is an independent Christian film, released by Five & Two Pictures. Stars D. David Morin and Gavin MacLeod as two Bible College professors; living in 1890. MacLeod's character invents a time machine and sends Morin to the early 21st century.
[edit] Plot
Morin's character writes a book called "The Changing Times". The book talks about Christian morals, but does not say Jesus taught them. The Bible college plans to endorse the book, but its board must unanimously approve it. MacLeod's character (who returned from the future), sees a possible future. Because of this trip, he refuses endorsing the book.
With only one vote of dissension, Morin and others seek to change the college's unanimity rule. MacLeod convinces Morin to come to his house, to see why he won't support the book. He reveals the time machine and sends Morin into the future. The purpose of the trip is to show Morin the possible results of not saying Jesus Christ taught certain beliefs.
Morin spends a week in the early 21st century and is initially shocked by the advancements since 1890. As the week progresses, he discovers how far society has fallen from Christ's teachings. Attributing it to a lack of attribution to Christ, he returns to 1890 and apologizes to his friend (MacLeod) for doubting him. He revises the book and retitles it "Time Changer".
The movie ends with MacLeod trying to send a Bible to the year 2100. When it fails, he tries 2090. That fails and he tries 2080. That fails and he lowers the year again. This ending is to provoke the question, "Is Jesus returning within the next 100 years?"
