Gandalf dies to save the Fellowship while on the bridge of Kaza Dum and rises again later as Gandalf the White.= Jesus dies and rises again to save us.
Aragorn is the coming king that is rejected by many, especially Denathor.= Christ's birth is prophesied and He is a king, which Herod rejects. Or Peter denying Jesus thrice.
Ring= sin or temptation
Frodo, an innocent hobbit, carries out the quest of destroying the Ring to save Middle Earth.= Jesus, who is completely pure and innocent, takes on the quest of coming to earth and dying to save everyone.
Not much on LotR as you can see, but there isn't much straight allegory.
So now that we've covered those, you can use what I've posted as something to think about when voting for your favorite series. :)
