1 Timothy 6:15

In its own times (kairoiv idioiv). Locative case. May be "in his own times." See I Timothy 2:6. Clearly not for us to figure out.

Who is the blessed and only Potentate (o makariov kai monov dunasthv). "The happy and alone Potentate." Dunasthv, old word, in N.T. only here, Luke 1:52; Acts 8:27 (the Eunuch). See I Timothy 1:11 for makariov.

The King of kings (o basileuv twn basileuontwn). "The King of those who rule as kings." Oriental title. So with "Lord of lords." See 10:16.
