Every true seeker of spiritual knowledge understands and admits that there is only one God, and, every scripture and religion speaks about Him. The Almighty is neither Indian nor American nor otherwise, neither Christian nor Hindu nor Muslim. He is just "God".
As for staying on the topic, there is not one central, authoritative book in Hinduism. But Hinduism is rich in scripture with a vast collection of ancient religious writings. Hindus believe God revealed truths to wise men who passed them on for thousands of years through a rich oral tradition. The scriptures include the Vedas, the Upanishads, the Puranas and the Bhagavad Gita.
At the same time, Bible is a central tenet on or around which Christianity is based or followed. It can move masses and teach them good things quickly considering the fact that most humans simply do not think/question or have time to do so. In addition, Bible is full of amazing stories, rock star personalities, Jesus being the biggest Rockstar of them all. If his teachings and life does not move us, am not sure what will.
One ultimately gets motivated by what he/she is subconsciously looking for and can find it in either or neither of them. There is proof for the entire humanity that every religion speaks about one Supreme Personality.
