Is God against pleasure?

Frankly, when you look at the laws of Christianity, it looks really boring. Do not make fun of people, unable to sleep with whoever you want. Christians do not look funny in life is to go to church one Sunday to sing with the head of a funeral. One has the impression that Christians have banned the pleasure of their lives. So God is against pleasure?

me stop you right away, God is pleased. Indeed, what is the first miracle of Jesus? He changed water into wine readjust our best Bordeaux in the rank of cheap wine. Jesus taught in banquets and meals.
And then, for example, in proverbs are: "Let your joy of the wife of your youth, doe loves, graceful gazelle; intoxicating yourself with her breasts at any time, be ceaselessly drunk with love." And yes, surprise, who created sex? It is God!

That said, God is lucid enough on our earthly pleasure. The book of Ecclesiastes in the Old Testament is the story of a guy who tries all the pleasures on earth. He partied, he drinks like a fish, he becomes the smartest man, the richest man, and he even has 700 wives and 300 concubines.
And yet, this man says he is dissatisfied, he does not know the ultimate happiness. He is afraid of death and in 100 years, everyone has forgotten.
Our earthly pleasure is relative: you put a bass drum, drink like a fish, you'll spend a good evening! But I can not tell you the headache the next day, you will regret every minute of fun! Sleep with whoever you want, but each failure will be an additional tear in your heart.

As God is lucid on our earthly pleasure, it puts limits. Why? Because the Bible tells how man has perverted into wanting to live without God. Suddenly, the human notion of fun, very imperfect, can be dangerous if not framed. Indeed, the pleasure may :
- take the place of God (and become an idol);
- be taken at the expense of its neighbor, rape, theft, adultery and farms of all kinds are a good example, sex is
limited to marriage - may turn to self-destruction: addiction, depravity progressive laziness. That's Why God
limits the earthly pleasure, it's for our good, he knows us as if we had created!

Finally, Jesus promises something interesting for those who put their faith in Him after death, they will participate in a huge wedding feast, they live in a new creation without of all evil short of pure pleasure and this for eternity!

Ultimately, God is totally for real fun, for true happiness ... rather the man who prefers a pale copy of the original.
