God does not dwell in a temple built with human hands.

The word church is used in two senses: the visible and the invisible church. The visible church consists of all the people that claim to be Christians and go to church. The invisible church is the actual body of Christians; those who are truly saved.
The true church of God is not an organization on earth consisting of people and buildings, but is really a supernatural entity comprised of those who are saved by Jesus. It spans the entire time of man's existence on earth as well as all people who are called into it. We become members of the church (body of Christ) by faith (Acts 2:41). We are edified by the Word (Eph. 4:15-16), disciplined by God (Matt. 18:15-17), unified in Christ (Gal. 3:28), and sanctified by the Spirit (Eph. 5:26-27).

quote or misquote -- there are many kinds of houses where one prays according to his/her beliefs. to inject a one "source" and have us believe it is the only way and no other way is to do disservice to other observant. temples, synagogues, churches, private home, etc. etc. are all places where we connect and re-connect with the supreme -- to each and everyone in his/her own way. hope it helps.
