How can we obtain the GMT time of a datetime variable?

New comment
When it's not sunday or a holiday that the broker clock is equal to timecurrent() we can obtain the GMT time of a datetime variable t:

t - ( timecurrent() - timeGMT() )

But is there a function that give us the value of timecurrent() - timeGMT() when a broker time isn't changing?
Try TimeTradeServer() instead of TimeCurrent(). TimeTradeServer is always ticking.

from my experience, when I have note that there is difference between the broker time and the actual time 3 Hours.

I used timeoffset,timecurrent,rawtime and adjustedtime in my prints to check and confirm the server time.

That will not handle minor jitter of the clocks. 
int tzToGMT=0;
void OnTick(){ tzToGMT=900*MathRound( ( TimeGMT() - TimeCurrent() )/900.); …

//////
datetime gmt= t + tzToGMT;

Of course when the internet is not connected there is no way. Therefore we should write the difference between servers and GMT time at somewhere (for example M.S word)
