There are no references to a "church building" in The Bible.

The temple (and to a lesser extent, the synagogues) held great importance for the Jews, but became insignificant with the advent of Christianity.

John 4:21-23 - Jesus said to her, "Woman, believe Me, the hour is coming when you will neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father. You worship what you do not know; we know what we worship, for salvation is of the Jews. But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him."

For the most part, congregations of the New Testament church met in private homes.

Romans 16:5a - Likewise greet the church that is in their house.
