Thanks, I take it then that you are not like some that say that only the apostles were used in gifts like prophesy etc...

That would be a valid "take".... since I mentioned more than once and included references to texts that clearly show that there were many disciples, apart from the Apostles, who exercised the "revelatory" gifts. I thought I made it quite clear that the main reason why the gifts continued after Pentecost until the death of the last Apostle, was to validate the inclusion of the "world" into the Church; Judea, Samaria and unto the uttermost parts of the world", i.e., "Gentiles". In addition it is more than obvious that there was a group at Corinth where these "gifts" were being experienced.
