Penumbra Story Explanation? (Spoilers)

So I'm trying to figure out what's behind the story. I think I got a little bit but I'm not sure.

So all the events happen. Phillip is about to send the e-mail, then notices he can't leave the room. Plus, his father did the same things Phillip was asked to do...but is now dead. So in revenge he says to "kill them all". He gets knocked out and is most likely dead after talking to people who should be dead or infected. The two endings, joining the fire with red or going back through the door to end up in the fisherman's boat. If Phillip were to go back would he be forced to relive that entire story?

Plus, what did he mean by "If we are lucky, then by the time you read this, I will be dead. If fate frowns, we all perish."
