But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God (John 1:12-13).
Christianity is living by the Spirit and by the Word of God. Your life came from the Word of God. The whole universe was created by the Word of God. God spoke creation into being by His Word: John 1:1-3, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made.”
Notice that He gives personality to the Word of God. All things were made by Him, the Word of God, and without Him was not anything made that was made. God upholds all things, He keeps them in place by the Word of His power (Hebrews 1:3). This same Word is who John tells us became flesh and dwelt amongst us (John 1:14).
The Lord Jesus is the incarnate Word, the living Word. When He walked the earth, He was the Word of God encased in a human body. Are you aware that the same is true of you? Being born again, you’ve been born of the Word and have the life of the Word: “Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever” (1 Peter 1:23).
This therefore means that you don’t live by your blood; you live by the Spirit of God and by the Word of God. No wonder Jesus said, “…Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God” (Matthew 4:4). It’s also the reason He said, “…if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them…” (Mark 16:18). Your life came from the Word, not from blood. Read our opening scripture again.
Also, Romans 8:11 says, “But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.” This is your reality in Christ Jesus: the Spirit of God has quickened, vitalized and given life to your physical body. Divinity has taken its abode in you.
You’ve been brought into life and immortality, begotten by the Word of truth (2 Timothy 1:10). This is why we say Christianity isn’t a religion. It’s life in the Word, by the Word, through the Word, and by the Spirit. It’s the supernatural walk of God’s heavenly children in the earth. Hallelujah!

FURTHER STUDY
John 1:12-14 NIV
Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God— 13 children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God. 14 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.
Romans 8:10-11 ESV
But if Christ is in you, although the body is dead because of sin, the Spirit is life because of righteousness. 11 If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.
Luke 4:4 KJV
And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.
Colossians 3:16 KJV
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
