This article discusses the importance of developing a Christian Religious Education (PAK) model based on Christian theology and implemented through the active role of the church in carrying out the Great Commission. True Christian education does not only convey doctrinal information, but also forms the character, spirituality, and calling of the people based on the word of God. The church is positioned as a learning community and the main implementer of the contextual, transformative, and biblical theology-rooted faith education process. Through a qualitative-descriptive approach and literature study, this paper emphasizes that theological foundations, such as God as the source of education, the Bible as the basis of teaching, Christ as the focus, and the church as the implementer, are inseparable elements of PAK. Christian Religious Education based on theology provides clear direction in designing content, methods, and learning objectives that are in line with God's will. Thus, this education model is expected to be able to answer the challenges of the times, strengthen the faith of the congregation, and produce strong and relevant followers of Christ in society.  

The rapid advancement of modern computing has driven extensive research on numerical algorithms for solving large-scale systems of linear equations. Classical methods such as LU decomposition, Jacobi, and Gauss–Seidel have been revisited and optimized to leverage parallel architectures, GPUs, and even quantum platforms. Recent studies demonstrate that optimized algorithms can reduce computation time by more than 50% while maintaining high accuracy in solving high-dimensional problems. LU decomposition, particularly in its parallel and GPU-based implementations, has shown superior performance in batch processing and industrial-scale simulations. Meanwhile, iterative methods such as Jacobi and Gauss–Seidel remain relevant due to their flexibility in numerical modeling, with further developments for block matrix systems, finite element applications, and FPGA architectures. The integration of these enhanced algorithms is not only beneficial for the advancement of scientific software development but also supports practical applications in engineering simulations, large-scale data optimization, and machine learning. Therefore, an integrative review of modern numerical algorithm developments is crucial in bridging the gap between industrial demands and research progress in scientific computing.
