Personally, the foundation of my Christian Anarchism is recognizing that all people are images of God, and in Eden, we were given all the rest of creation to rule — but not each other. “Do not steal” and “do not murder” apply to everyone, and as the first is exactly what states must do to exist and the second is what they usually end up doing at some point (often to enforce the first), they’re not of God.

There’s a lot more to be said about this and I hope you fall down the rabbit hole!

The Libertarian Christian Institute is a great resource; check out this article addressing Romans 13 from there:
