The New Testament scriptures [original manuscripts] have not changed from then to now. Hell has always been a part of the revelation of the New Testament.
Another reason why it's pure fabrication. What Christians would have us believe is that God sat around for millenia not uttering a single word about original sin or the consequential eternal damnation. Then some dude shows up pulling the perceived danger out of his ass while prescribing a cure. A classic case of charlatanism.
