My Debian box keeps showing the wrong time

Unlikely. It is showing you the time it thinks it has, adjusted for your
time zone. If the time is wrong, likely your hardware clock is wrong.

Reset your clock properly with hwclock. For ongoing clock issues, you
may need to use chrony, ntp, or similar to keep your clock synchronized.
