How do we know that the Church's priority is to have the presence of Christ?

Answered in 1 source

The Church's priority is affirmed through scripture that emphasizes communion and fellowship with Christ.

The priority of the Church is to remain in the presence of Christ, drawing from examples in scripture that testify to this truth. In Luke 24, after His resurrection, Jesus meets two disciples on the road to Emmaus and, through His teaching, they feel their hearts burn within them. This indicates the transformative power of being in the presence of Christ and receiving His word. Likewise, in the Song of Solomon, the Shulamite expresses a deep longing for communion with her Beloved, reflecting the believer's desire to be in fellowship with Christ. Such scripture underscores that the relationship with Christ is not a mere aspect of worship; it is its foundational structure.
