‏ 1 Timothy 6:13

 Who quickeneth all things ( του ζωογονουντος τα παντα ). Present active participle of  ζωογονεω ( ζωογονος, from  ζωοσ, γενω ), late word to give life, to bring forth alive, in N.T. only here and Ac 7:19. See 1Sa 2:6.

 Before Pontius Pilate ( επ Ποντιου Πειλατου ). Not "in the time of," but "in the presence of."

 Witnessed ( μαρτυρησαντος ). Note  μαρτυρεω, not  ομολογεω as in verse 12. Christ gave his evidence as a witness to the Kingdom of God. Evidently Paul knew some of the facts that appear in Joh 18.
