1)"friend" he said stubbornly,"my mind is made up. not another step will i budge on this errand.what if a wretched old woman do choose to go to the devil when i thought sje was going to heaven: is that any reason why i should quit my dear faith and go after her?"
this is basically saying why should i do something and follow you just because they are doing it and also the word faith could have a double meaning because of the fact his wife was called faith or it could mean faith in god he wants to know why he should follow the devil to hell.
2)"let us hear which will laugh loudest.think not to frighten me with your deviltry. come witch, come indian powwow, come devil himself, and here comes Goodman Brown. you may as well fear him as he fear you."
he is challenging the devil after thinking he has lost his wife and is showing that the devil sholud be as scared of him as he is of the devil he also challenges the witch and the indian powwow which are worshippers of the devil.
