I have an old MacBook Pro (Retina,13", Mid2014) with MacOs (Mojave 10.14.1) that I have been trying to update forever and ended abandoning for a M1 MacBook air. I need to repurpose this machine but I still cannot update. I tried most of the things on the net to no avail.
Your assistance will be highly appreciated.

Earlier Mac models
If you’re not fussed about the current contents, maybe boot Recovery, and erase and re-install:
Use macOS Recovery on an Intel-based Mac - Apple Support
Boot that with Option-Command-R to get the latest supported.

The classic way to check for interference from other software is to restart into safe mode, which does not load most third-party add-ons. Try the same experiment form Safe mode.
(Hold Shift at startup, and endure the five-minute additional disk check as it starts up. Screen updates may be wonky and slow, but will ultimately be correct.)
'Works in safe mode, fails in regular mode' implies "It's something you added."
is the system Time correct within five minutes of internet time?
Do other apps like Safari work o.k? Can you access other websites or internet requiring apps correctly?
What macOS version is this Mac currently running?
Safari works fine.. I am actually asking for help using it. MacOs Mojave 10.14.1. Even Firefox which has always been my browser of choice long time ago
The system time is correct. Double checked to make sure it is so. Please advice
