There is one criteria, read the scripture as written and remove all dispensationalist teachings from itThere are two fundamental criteria for understanding the end times timeline.
1. The time frames given in the bible for the end times. See first chart below
2. The five stages that the person goes through on the way to being cast alive into the lake of fire. See second chart below.

If you are referring to the Christian Forums site - yes, I am active there as well.Hey Douggg, weren't you on the Fulfilled Prophecy forum at one time?
Do you have a link to the specific forum you are referring to ?
The three sites, I am active at are Christianity boards, Christian Forums, Worthy Christians. I go by my same screen name at all three.The one I'm referring to no longer exists. I believe it was founded by Herb Peters and later managed by his daughter, Holly. I'm pretty sure I've seen your name and avatar before. I went by the nickname Watchman and Jericho.

Stage 4. The revealed man of sin.ou forgot when Paul spoke of him as "that Wicked". What stage is that?
2Th 2:8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:
The reason I don't have "that Wicked" as being a separate Stage from being the man of sin is that being the beast-king is not an interim Stage, but the final Stage and is associated with the ten kings.Each of your stages have their own name or title for this person so "that Wicked" is a supposed stage you aren't including. In context it would appear to be just before Christ returns.

btw, congratulations on your chart making efforts/ability. That was an impressive modification to my chart. You did a nice job. What program did you use to make your chart ? I use Corel paintshop pro.
On my chart, you might notice that the five different Stages, are in blue text.
In the bible, the chapters actually parallel the same sequence as the 5 stages.
i.e.
Daniel 7-8, the little horn
Daniel 9, the prince that shall come
John, the Antichrist
2Thessalonians, the revealed man of sin
Revelation, the beast-king
Keep perfecting your end times understanding. In the other thread, I replied to you with a post explaining why the Antichrist will be a phony King of Israel, thought-to-be messiah for a while. During which the world will be saying "peace and safety" during his false messianic age.
As the rider on the white horse in Revelation 6 messianic figure, the Antichrist will begin the 7 year 70th week. When he exposes himself as the man of sin, war will break out, the rider on the red horse, and the revealed man of sin will be assassinated. Then, after about a week, will be brought back to life to become the beast-king.
"phony" in the sense that the Antichrist is not sent by God to be the King of Israel.In your explanations you do not present him as a "phony king" but a validly elected King of Israel.
What is a timeline interpretation of scripture ?TIME IS AN ILLUSION. So are all timeline interpretations of scripture

"phony" in the sense that the Antichrist is not sent by God to be the King of Israel.
And he will not be "elected" but anointed the King of Israel by the false prophet. The Jews (Judaism) believe that the messiah will be anointed the king of Israel by a know prophet, similar to the way that Saul and David were anointed king by Samuel the prophet and Solomon was anointed king by Nathan the prophet.
