He means that God must be dead if He allows the witch trials to happen. Proctor says Danforth will go to hell because he knows the whole thing is "fraud". Proctor says he will go to hell because he didn't come forward to stop this whole thing when he should have. Its a figure of speech...

What does John Proctor mean he says I am John Proctor. You will not use me.?

Oh, dude, when John Proctor says, "I am John Proctor. You will not use me," he's basically saying, "Hey, don't try to manipulate me or control me, okay?" It's like he's standing up for himself and refusing to be a pawn in someone else's game. So, yeah, he's just asserting his independence and telling people to back off.
