Convince your christian friends to stop worshiping the antichrist: Statist jesus! 80% of americans claim to be Christian. So next time someone tells you to move to Samolia send them away with "btw Jesus is an anarchist. Statist jesus is the antichrist."
Reason 1. The golden rule: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Or, as anarchists say NAP or non-aggression principle: do not initiate force.
Reason 2. Satan currently has power over the world's governments. That's why it was a temptation when this power was offered to Jesus.
Reason 3. All laws are summed up by: Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind, & strength
& Love your neighbor as yourself. I'm pretty sure no one wants to be robbed(taxes) caged(drug war) or killed(for defending themselves).
Reason 4. When questioned about why He ate with tax collecters & sinners He answered lumping them together because taxation is theft. Tax collecters are sinners.
Reason 5. Most christians are indoctrinated to believe that when Jesus said "Give unto Ceasar what is Ceasar's." he was saying pay taxes. When in fact they were trying to trap Him because they knew what He preached was against taxes & they wanted to arrest Him.
You can find details, scripture references, explanations about the rhetorical misdirection intended by Paul in Romans 13, drug use is not sin explanation, rule & reign(ourselves)with Christ, here in the best article on the subject that I've read by James Redford

Sorry to brake it to you but Jesus was a Statist
He insisted in following God's rules as a central authority. As simple as that

But insisting isn't force. Jesus never put a gun (spear, axe, knife,) to someones head and declared they must be Christian or else! Unlike the state...

1 Samuel 8:4 So all the elders of Israel gathered together and came to Samuel at Ramah. 5 They said to him, “You are old, and your sons do not follow your ways; now appoint a king to lead[b] us, such as all the other nations have.”
6 But when they said, “Give us a king to lead us,” this displeased Samuel; so he prayed to the Lord. 7 And the Lord told him: “Listen to all that the people are saying to you; it is not you they have rejected, but they have rejected me as their king. 8 As they have done from the day I brought them up out of Egypt until this day, forsaking me and serving other gods, so they are doing to you. 9 Now listen to them; but warn them solemnly and let them know what the king who will reign over them will claim as his rights.”
10 Samuel told all the words of the Lord to the people who were asking him for a king. 11 He said, “This is what the king who will reign over you will claim as his rights: He will take your sons and make them serve with his chariots and horses, and they will run in front of his chariots. 12 Some he will assign to be commanders of thousands and commanders of fifties, and others to plow his ground and reap his harvest, and still others to make weapons of war and equipment for his chariots. 13 He will take your daughters to be perfumers and cooks and bakers. 14 He will take the best of your fields and vineyards and olive groves and give them to his attendants. 15 He will take a tenth of your grain and of your vintage and give it to his officials and attendants. 16 Your male and female servants and the best of your cattle[c] and donkeys he will take for his own use. 17 He will take a tenth of your flocks, and you yourselves will become his slaves. 18 When that day comes, you will cry out for relief from the king you have chosen, but the Lord will not answer you in that day.”
19 But the people refused to listen to Samuel. “No!” they said. “We want a king over us. 20 Then we will be like all the other nations, with a king to lead us and to go out before us and fight our battles.”
21 When Samuel heard all that the people said, he repeated it before the Lord. 22 The Lord answered, “Listen to them and give them a king.”
