Tolkien didn't base a lot off the Bible. He hated analogies. That's why he disliked Chronicles of Narnia.

Some parralels can be drawn, but he didn't base it off of the Bible or Christianity. And no, a fight against evil doesn't count as "Christian".

The only one that pops to mind is the parralel between lembas and the Holy Eucharist, and Tolkien said something about that, but I forget what.
