paul wrote that ONLY some spoke in tongues even in Apostolic times, and notice that helinks the offices of Prophets/Apostles to workers of hrealings/miracles/tongues, so if those have ceased, why would not have tongues?

2. 1Cor 14 insists that church members should earnestly seek spiritual gifts - but especially the gift of prophecy.
3. The point that 1Cor 12 does not make the claim that all saints have all spiritual gifts - is valid because it is actually in the text itself.

It is not working.
Thus we take Paul over you-quote-you.
1. 1Cor 12 does NOT declare the end of any gifts at all.
2. 1Cor 14 insists that church members should earnestly seek spiritual gifts - but especially the gift of prophecy.
3. The point that 1Cor 12 does not make the claim that all saints have all spiritual gifts - is valid because it is actually in the text itself. But at no point does Paul say that only Apostles have gifts - and at no point does Paul deny his statement about "EACH one has a teaching, EACH one has a revelation" etc. So in the church of Corinth - they apparently had a lot of spiritual gifts For those inclined to read Paul over you-quote-you
