Christian is pretty broad, I wouldn't say that all versions about submission, even where there is an element of it, its often more about doing what is right rather than submission as such.

Libertarianism is a political thing. It doesn't require an egalitarian viewpoint (even between humans let alone to a deity you believe in). You can personally want to "submit to God" and still be every inch a libertarian as long as you don't seek to force others to do so (whether through government or with some other form of force). Its true that a lot of people are "libertarians of convenience" when the government is going after or they think its going after, what they like, or want to do, or believe in, but you can be a true and consistent libertarian with almost any belief other that "all should submit to the will of God, and if they don't I should make them do so".

I like the libertarian socialists. They're the coolest libertarians!
