I didn't open it either, I've heard enough scare tactics for one lifetime. Hopefully God has better reasons for me to serve him than fear...

I hope your friend is not the author here of this letter.

I HAVE NOT GIVEN YOU THE SPIRIT OF FEAR. --GOD

So you can guess who the spirit fear comes from.

Since you did not listen to it, you have no idea what it is about, and your assumption is wrong.

Here is my assumption... without listening to it:

It is probably a letter from an imaginary person pleading with his friends and family to get right with God before it is too late. He would state that he was a fool and was wrong and to please change your course before it is too late for you too.

That's not an interpretation... that is just a guess. I guess I will have to listen to it myself to see if I am right?

No He hasn't given us a spirit of fear....but Jesus did instruct us to fear......fear Him that has the power to take your life and cast you into hell..........the Old testament tells us the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.......perfect love cast out fear......but how do you get that perfect love.....by having a fear or should I say respect for the Word of God.........

I'm not overly impressed but using fear tactics to get an emotional response.....but a life changing, direction changing, eternity changing response is what is needed, no matter which method is used.

Jude 1:22 - 25 (KJV)
22 And of some have compassion, making a difference:
23 And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
24 Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,
25 To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and for ever. Amen.
