When it comes down to it, we could all spend hours making connections between LotR characters and biblical figures - but you can connect many characters from many stories with biblical figures, so really, it shows nothing.
Although the comparison between Gandalf and Jesus is interesting - the only difference I can think of is a minor one: unlike Jesus, Gandalf didn't have any other kind of trade (such as carpentry). Oh, and his teaching style was different - I don't think Gandalf was as much a teacher as a wise leader.
