"I often synonymous Gollum in The Lord of the Rings with our souls when we reject God and embrace our own self desires. Ultimately our sin kills us, and turns our beautiful souls made in God's image into something animalistic, and unrecognizable.

Smeagol or as commonly known as Gollum started off as one of the River Folk but as he delved into the Ring he became the monster Gollum. So disgusted with himself yet still attached to the ring he develops multiple personality disorder to cope with his failings.

This is a common theme amongst Sinners in reality. Those so attached to their sin will jump through mental gymnastics to cope or justify why they sin. All in all, we have to come to the decision, will we be like Gollum? Or will we be the Fellowship?"
