The Flash Date object displays local time based on the viewers computer....how can I make it so it always displays the time in a certain timezone, regardless of the viewers location??

I believe the date object contains GMT +- time, so you could use that to calculate a global time.. but it will still be based off of how correct or incorrect the computer's time setting is. Alternative is to insert time from an external source, like a server
