This article was written to examine the new policy of the Ministry of Kemendikbud, namely the Kurikulum Merdeka Belajar Design, and its Implications for Evaluation of Islamic Religious Education Learning. The emergence of this new curriculum is due to the results of an assessment conducted by PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment) assessing that the quality of education in Indonesia is ranked 74th out of 79 countries. Broadly speaking, Indonesian education has experienced a very significant decline in literacy and numeracy. Starting from this phenomenon, the Ministry of Education and Culture designed a new curriculum design called independent learning. This study uses the Library Research method. Namely by collecting data and information in the form of texts, policy documents and previous studies on curriculum design in a formal institution. After studying the design of the Kurikulum Merdeka Belajar, this study analyses the implications of the Kurikulum Merdeka Belajar design with evaluation in Islamic religious education learning. The results of this study include, among others, that the new policy on the design of the Kurikulum Merdeka Belajar that will be applied in all formal education institutions in Indonesia is broadly as follows: 1) The national exam which previously only focused on the cognitive competence of students in the Kurikulum Merdeka Belajar has changed. become a minimum competency assessment that is held halfway through the education level process. 2) National standard school exams, which were formerly administered by the state, in this Kurikulum Merdeka Belajar were given to related educational institutions. 3) Simplification in compiling learning device documents. 4) Changes in the Zoning system in the admission of new students. Islamic religious education is a subject that is different from other subjects, this is because the learning process of Islamic religious education is coloured by divine spirits, from these divine spirits used to design an Islamic religious learning. Seeing the characteristics of the Kurikulum Merdeka Belajar that have been analysed above, the evaluation of Islamic religious education learning should be transformed into Authentic Assessment. In authentic research, Islamic education does not only assess students cognitively, but also assesses affectively (qolbiyah) and also morally (amaliyah).

The Bible is the main source of knowledge for every believer, especially for children in education. However, there is a tendency that Christian education prioritizes an educational model that emphasizes humanitarian philosophy so that it tends to no longer make the Bible the main source of Christian education. In obtaining data for writing this article, the author used a qualitative method with a literature review approach. The Bible is a material that should be given to children or society. This means that the teaching of the Bible itself does not only talk about the formation of morality and spirituality, but can also give weight to the main source as Christian education. The Bible is used as the main basis for teaching Christian Education in churches and schools that have a Christian curriculum. This is because the Bible is considered a holy book that contains the basic teachings of Christianity and is the highest authority for Christians. Therefore, in teaching Christian Religious Education, a Christian Religious Education teacher is required to use the Bible as the main source in providing explanations and teaching about the teachings of Christianity.
