So then are there no consequences for violating the Bible's teachings? No consequences?
for fornicating (shacking)? No consequences for adultery? None for violating any of the instructions?

There are consequences to all actions.
Fornicating: you could develop STDs, you have to deal with the emotions caused by the hormones emitted during sex, and when sex is involved, things tend to be more dramatic.
Adultery: Broken hearts. Sadness and guilt (if you're capable of guilt), possible loss of financial assets...the list goes on. Adultery can even lead to murder, if the wronged party is so inclined.
As for divine consequences, I'm not one to say. But the physical consequences here on earth speak for themselves. It's always a good day when I get to quote the Wiccan rede: "An it do no harm, do what ye will." That's harm to others, yourself, and the world around you. It's up to you to decide what is harmful and what is not.

a million. you have not proved that we violated it. whilst the Revelation became written, it became not part of any Bible nor the different e book. the only Bible in existence on the time became the Jewish Bible. So by your good judgment, we'd would desire to forget approximately on the subject of the completed New testomony. added, Amos, Jeremiah and Joel all prophesied of actual prophets and revelation interior the final days. 2. No. basically Jesus and God are defined in any element interior the Bible. The Holy Ghost isn't given any divine status interior the Bible. The oneness of Christ and God in nature crept into Christianity particularly straight away, even even though it did not start up with Jesus or his apostles. The inclusion of the Holy Ghost took centuries, and did not end until possibly the 300 and sixty 5 days 1400. 3. No, they don't look to be. the essential doctrines of Christianity are: (a) Jesus Christ is the son of God. (He stated this interior the Bible. He in no way stated that he became part of a Trinity.) (b) Jesus' atonement for sin on the Mount of Olives (c) Jesus' actual death, burial and resurrection (actual and tangible and alive). (d) Jesus resurrecting us in a protracted time.

David from the Bible was an adulterer, and Yes, he paid a huge consequence. His adultery has a lot to do with today's political problems with Israel.
Solomon, same thing, Israel is paying for what Solomon did. In the end, the Bible tells us that Solomon died a very depressed man because all his women left him void of happiness.

Though I am not a Christian,
But there must be consequences for violating the Bible's teachings, logically.
Bible do contain "Words of God" but also have many manipulations, and Atheists exploit the unscientific parts of the Bible,
So you need an authentic "Word of God", Which is only Quran.

It depends on your view of the bible.
If you believe in its teaching then you will feel guilty and that will make you feel miserable. That would be the consequence, a self inflicted punishment: guilt.
If you don't believe in what the bible tells you then there are no consequences whatsoever except a good time in the sack and maybe a venereal disease if you are unlucky.

Genesis
4:6 And the Lord said unto Cain: 'Why are you upset? and why is your face fallen? 4:7 If you do right, shall righteousness not be its reward? and if you do not well, sin crouches at the door; and lusts after you, but you can rule over it.'
