I am getting this error while using the make command in the terminal.

Yes, definitely, cleaning up your codebase and then issuing find . -exec touch {} \; does the trick.

as the link said:

Sometimes the last modified time on the files is wrong:
because it is greater than the time of day clock.  `make'
then issues the above message.
You usually see these sort of problems in programming
enviroments that use NFS to share files but don't sync
clocks using NTP.
